Fish Tacos with Cayenne Lime Sour Cream Sauce





Fish Tacos

This is one of my absolute favorite dinners. It's light, healthy, quick and easy and is super delicious.  I like to serve fish tacos with corn on the cob and/ or cilantro lime slaw and refried black beans. 

-6 pieces white fish like tilapia or halibut
-tortillas
-olive oil
-salt and pepper
-cayenne and cumin
-desired toppings; red cabbage, chopped cilantro, hot sauce, guacamole, cheese, hot sauce and/ or sriracha sauce

Cayenne Lime Sour Cream Sauce
-1/4 teaspoon each cumin and cayenne pepper
-1 tsp sugar
-1/2 tsp salt
-juice of 1/2 of a lime
-1/2 c sour cream

Season fish on both sides by sprinkling with salt, pepper, cayenne and cumin. Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat, add fish and cook for a few minutes on each side (until fish flakes easily with a fork). While fish is cooking combine sour cream, juice of 1/2 lime, sugar, salt, cumin and cayenne pepper for sauce. To assemble tacos place 1 fillet of fish in a tortilla, top with desired toppings and sour cream sauce.
