Ingredients
1 pound firm white fish fillets (mahi mahi, cod, tilapia, red snapper, or catfish)
8 small soft corn tortillas
2 cups shredded red or green cabbage
1 cucumber, seeded and diced
1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cup kalamata olives, halved
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Tzatziki sauce for topping
Directions
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
Place the fish in the hot pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F. Transfer the cooked fish to a plate.
Using two forks, gently flake the cooked fish into bite-sized pieces.
Warm the tortillas in a dry pan or over a flame until pliable, about 30 seconds per side.
Assemble the tacos by layering on each tortilla: shredded cabbage, flaked fish, sliced tomatoes, kalamata olives, and diced cucumber.
Top each taco with crumbled feta cheese and a dollop of tzatziki sauce. Serve immediately while warm.
Comments
White fish, corn tortillas, cabbage, and cucumbers are all standard finds at any Charlotte grocer, and feta cheese sits in the dairy case at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walmart, and Kroger without a second thought. The 45-minute time is honest if you're buying pre-made tzatziki; making it from scratch adds 10 minutes, so budget accordingly. Cost per serving runs around $3.50 to $4.00 because the fish itself carries the weight, though this feeds eight and reheats reasonably well for lunch the next day. This is a light, no-fuss weeknight dish that works year-round, though fresh cucumbers and tomatoes are cheaper in summer and early fall—winter versions may edge up to $4.25 per serving.
