Ingredients
  • • 4 Mahi Mahi fillets
  • • ¼ teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • • ½ teaspoon salt
  • • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • • 1 - 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • • 16 cherry tomatoes
  • • 4 gluten free tortillas
  • Optional: queso fresco, jalapeños, green onion


  • Cilantro Lime Dressing
  • • 1 cup fresh cilantro (loosely packed)
  • • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • • ¼ cup avocado oil
  • • juice from 1 lime
  • • 2 teaspoons spicy mustard
  • • 1 tablespoon honey
  • • pinch of sea salt
Instructions
  1. Thaw Mahi Mahi (if frozen). While fish thaws, mix together the spices – ¼ teaspoon chipotle chili powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper.
  2. Once thawed, place Mahi Mahi in skillet and cover both sides with seasoning. Cook fish for 3-5 minutes on each side until done.
  3. While the fish cooks, prepare the Cilantro Lime Dressing. Place all ingredients into blender (I use a single serve Ninja cup) and blend on high for about 1 minute until dressing is smooth.
  4. Lightly spray another skillet with cooking oil and place one tortilla in skillet. Let brown for about 2 minutes on each side (but watch carefully, as your second, third, fourth tortilla will heat quicker than the first).
  5. Once tortillas are browned and warm, place a piece of mahi mahi on a tortilla and add toppings of choice – ¼ - ⅓ cup cabbage, 4 - 5 cherry tomatoes sliced in half, a sprinkle of queso fresco, sliced jalapenos, diced green onion, and drizzle of cilantro lime dressing. Enjoy!
