Lime Fish Tacos! We eat these weekly!
Ingredients
- Marinade:
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 4 teaspoons lime zest
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce, or to taste
- 1 pound tilapia fillets, cut into chunks
- Dressing:
- 1 (8 ounce) container light sour cream
- 1/2 cup fresh salsa
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 teaspoons lime zest
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- Toppings:
- 1 package corn tortillas
- 3 ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1 bunch cilantro, chopped
- Shredded green cabbage or lettuce
- 2 limes, cut in wedges
Directions
- To make the marinade, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, lime zest, honey, garlic, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, and hot sauce in a bowl until blended. Place the tilapia in a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the fish. Cover, and refrigerate 6 to 8 hours. (I leave it on the counter for 20 minutes and grill it right away).
- To make the dressing, combine the sour cream and salsa in a bowl. Stir in the lime juice, lime zest, cumin, chili powder. Add salt, and pepper in desired amounts. Cover, and refrigerate until needed.
- Preheat foreman grill.
- Grill fish pieces until easily flaked with a fork, about 7 minutes.
- Lightly brown tortillas on pan on stove.
- Assemble tacos by placing fish pieces in the center of tortillas with desired amounts of tomatoes, cilantro, and cabbage; drizzle with dressing. Eat open.
