Tilapia Fish Tacos come together in minutes for a meal that is light and fresh tasting. Spiced fish fillets get tucked into a tortilla along with cooling avocado cream (that has just a touch of heat) and a crunchy vegetable slaw.
Ingredients:
8 (6-inch) white or yellow corn tortillas (I used flour tortillas since I had a bunch on hand)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tilapia fillets, about 5 ounces each
Quick Vegetable Slaw (recipe follows)
Avocado Sauce (recipe follows)
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler to high with one rack in the center and another placed about 4-5 inches from the top of the oven or heating element.
2. Wrap the tortillas in foil and place them on the center rack of the oven to heat through.
3. In a small bowl, combine the cumin, garlic powder, oregano and salt. Place the tilapia fillets on a lightly greased foil lined baking sheet and rub lightly on both sides with the oil. Sprinkle both sides of the fish with the spice mixture.
4. Broil fish on the top rack of oven until the flesh is firm but not overcooked, 5-8 minutes.
5. To serve, use two forks to lightly break apart the tilapia into pieces. Divide the fish between the tortillas and top with slaw and avocado sauce. Serve immediately.

“Atheist Money” is the first single from Adam Stafford’s new album ‘Taser Revelations’ due out this fall. From the first twangs of guitar to that person slipping on a banana peel noise, you know that this song is gonna be goooood. It’s all sorts of drifty, shifty fun.
“He gave you everything for nothing in return”
