Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by patting the white fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
- Generously rub the spice mixture on both sides of each fish fillet.
- Add a splash of olive oil to your preheated skillet, swirling it to ensure an even coating on the bottom.
- Carefully place the fish fillets in the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, and cilantro until smooth.
- In another bowl, toss together shredded cabbage, carrots, red onion, and chopped cilantro for a crunchy slaw.
- Whisk lime juice, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper in a separate small bowl. Drizzle this dressing over the slaw mix and toss to combine well!
- Heat your corn or flour tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until warm.
- On each warm tortilla, layer a generous spoonful of slaw, followed by a piece of crispy fish, and top it off with lime crema.
- Customize your tacos with optional toppings like avocado slices, hot sauce, or pickled onions.
- Plate your Mexican Fish Tacos, and serve them warm with lime wedges on the side.

Notes
For best quality, avoid freezing assembled tacos since the slaw may become soggy.
