Grilled Fish
- 3 filets cod (or other fish)
- 1 lime
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
Citrus Carrot Slaw
- 2 navel oranges peeled and diced
- 2 cara cara oranges peeled and diced
- 1 large carrot julienne peeled
- 1 cup green cabbage thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
- 1 lime juiced
- salt and pepper to taste
Mix all of the citrus slaw ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
Heat a grill (or grill pan) on medium-high heat and grill the fish for 2-3 minutes on one side. Squeeze the lime over the fish and season with garlic, salt and pepper. Flip the fish and grill for another 2-3 minutes. The fish will likely break apart and that's okay.
Assemble the fish tacos by placing small pieces of fish in each taco, then top with the slaw. Garnish with avocado and lime slices.
- If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can use a grill pan or reversible grill/griddle pan and make these in your kitchen. Super easy!
