Fish Tacos


INGREDIENTS:

1 pound of white fish, such as cod, mahi mahi, or tilapia
1 lime
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

4 - 6 soft flour tortillas, medium size

Garnish with:
guacamole or avocados
salsa
sour cream or crema
cilantro cabbage salad (see recipe under salads)
limes

1.  Place the fish in a large enough bowl or container and squeeze the lime over it.  Add the garlic, cumin, chili powder, olive oil, salt and pepper.  Turn the fish over and brush the marinade over it.  Refrigerate for a couple of hours to allow the fish to soak up the juices.

2.  Grill fish, or place fish in a small frying pan, cover and cook on medium for about 5 minutes on each side, or until fish is flaky.

Warm the tortillas, then place a spoonful of guacamole and sour cream in a tortilla, add some fish, a couple of spoonfuls of cilantro cabbage salad, squeeze a 1/4 lime over it, and finally add a little salsa.
