Servings 4
Ingredients
- 4 whole tilapia fillets
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce (Frank's Red Hot)
- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
- 1/4 olive oil + extra for frying
- fresh lime juice
- 8-12 yellow corn tortillas
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped for serving
- sour cream
- For the mango guacamole
- 4 ripe avocados
- 1 medium tomato, chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped mango
- 1/3 cup chopped red onion
- 1 small jalapeño, seeded and chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 large bunch cilantro
Instructions
- Whisk hot sauce, olive oil, and Cajun seasoning in a large bowl. Add the fish to a zip-lock bag and add marinade.
- Seal zip-lock bag and then swish around to coat fish completely in marinade. Place the bag in refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
- While your fish is marinating, make your mango guacamole. Remove avocado meat and combine in a bowl with tomato, jalapeno, onion, mango and a bunch of torn cilantro. Add salt, pepper and lime juice and mix/mash until desired consistency is reached. Place in refrigerator.
- Next remove the fish from the bag and let excess marinade drip off. Place 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan and wait for oil to begin to smoke.
- Place fish in pan and cook about 3 minutes on each side. Remove fish and place on a warm plate.
- Place 1/2 of a fish filet in each corn tortilla and top with 2 tablespoons of mango guacamole and garnish with cilantro and sour cream if desired.
