Description

Fresh, grilled white fish fillets marinated in a zesty blend of lemon, garlic, and herbs, served in warm corn tortillas with a crisp cabbage slaw.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs firm white fish fillets (mahi-mahi, cod, or halibut)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8–12 small corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for slaw)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
  4. Place fish fillets on the grill and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side until they flake easily with a fork.
  5. While fish is grilling, toss shredded cabbage with lime juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl to create a simple slaw.
  6. Place corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds per side until warm and slightly charred.
  7. Flake the grilled fish into chunks and distribute among the tortillas.
  8. Top with cabbage slaw and serve with fresh lemon wedges.
