Contrary to popular belief – and what the Taco Bell commercials show us – tacos don’t have to be loaded with unhealthy items, such as cheese and sour cream. This gluten-free tilapia taco recipe is delicious, as well as dairy-free. 

Gluten Free Tilapia Tacos

Servings: 6

Ingredients:

• 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 3/4 teaspoons salt
• 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
• 6 tilapia fillets (4-6 oz. each)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cups finely shredded cabbage
• 12 corn tortillas
• 3 avocados
• Lime wedges and cilantro, for serving
• Salsa

Directions:

1. Combine the ground cumin with the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Brush the tilapia fillets on both sides with the olive oil. Sprinkle the cumin seasoning mixture on both sides of each fillet.
2. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot (spray with on-stick cooking spray unless using non-stick pan). Add the tilapia and let cook without moving for 2 minutes; flip and cook on the other side for 2 more minutes or until the fish is cooked through and starts to flake.
3. When done, flake the fish into a serving bowl and cover to keep warm.
4. Heat the tortillas and serve. Let everyone make their own by adding a small handful of cabbage and avocado to each tortilla, topping with some fish and then salsa. Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice and more cilantro if desired.
5. Fold the tortilla over and enjoy!
