Fish Tacos

 Cabbage Slaw:
1/2 green cabbage head
1/2 medium red onion
1 lime (zest + juice)
1 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp dried cilantro
plus a pinch each of:
ground ginger
dill
tarragon

Spice Rub for the Fish:
1 tsp granulated garlic
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Make the slaw:
1. Shred the cabbage
2. Dice the onion
3. Zest the lime, and combine zest + juice with the yogurt
4. Add all spices to the yogurt mix
5. Stir the yogurt mix with the cabbage and onions, and mix well
6. Let rest in fridge

The recipe is good for ca. 8 tilapia filets.
1. Prepare the spice rub for the fish
2. Season each tilapia filet with the spice rub (both sides)
3. Pan fry the fish filets on medium heat, ca. 3-4 minutes per side
4. Set aside fish when cooked
5. Break the filet into smaller pieces before adding it into the tortilla (to make sure there are no bones).

Heat up corn tortillas.

Serve the tortilla with a base of cabbage slaw and top with tilapia pieces. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a lime wedge at the side of the plate.
