Spicy Tilapia Tacos and Jicama Slaw with Dancing Crow Sauv Blanc

Ingredients:
For the tacos
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp onion pownder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 12 warm tortillas or lettuce wraps
For the sauce
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobe sauce, plus 1 tsp adobe sauce
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
Instructions:

Step 1:  In a small bowl, add the ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and salt. Stir to combine.
For the sauce, add all ingredients to a small blender and blend until smooth.  Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. 

Step 2:  Pat the tilapia fillets with a paper towel on both sides to remove any excess moisture. Season both sides of the fillets with the seasoning mixture.

Step 3:  Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through.  (I used the air fryer - I love how it makes the fish crunchy on the outside but perfectly done internally.)  Flake fish into bite-size pieces with fork.

Serve in warm corn/flour tortillas or in a romaine lettuce wrap for a healthier option.  Top with the chipotle lime sauce, sliced radishes, shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped cilantro and lime wedges.
**I added Jicama slaw for a little more heat and crunch! (recipe below)
