Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 limes
2 cloves garlic, quartered
1 small bunch cilantro, leaves and tender stems (about 2 cups packed)
1 small bunch cilantro, leaves and tender stems (about 2 cups packed)
1 bunch scallions, half coarsely chopped and half finely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound skinless halibut fillets, cut into 1-inch chunks
4 cups packed finely shredded savoy cabbage (about 8 ounces)
2/3 cup sour cream
8 to 12 corn tortillas, warmed
Prepared salsa verde, for serving

Steps:

  • Finely grate the zest of one of the limes and add it to the bowl of a mini food processor. Squeeze in the juice of the lime and add the garlic, cilantro, coarsely chopped scallions, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt and pulse until roughly chopped. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and 1 tablespoon water and continue to pulse until the mixture becomes a chunky sauce.
  • Toss the halibut in a bowl with all but 1 tablespoon of the sauce and let marinate for 10 to 15 minutes while you prepare the cabbage and the sour cream.
  • In a large bowl, toss the remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro sauce with the cabbage, finely chopped scallions, the juice of the second lime, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream, the juice of the remaining lime and a pinch of salt.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add about half of the fish, so the pieces are in a single layer, and cook, turning, until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate and cook the remaining fish with the remaining oil. Divide the fish among the tortillas and top with cabbage. Serve with the sour cream and salsa verde on the side.

I'm allergic to fish, so I can't try this recipe. :(

This recipe is a great starting point for creating your own unique fish tacos. I like to add avocado and mango to mine.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tacos didn't turn out very good. The fish was dry and the slaw was bland.

I had some trouble finding halibut, so I used tilapia instead. It worked out just fine.

These tacos were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them.

I made these tacos for dinner last night and they were delicious! The fish was cooked perfectly and the slaw was refreshing and flavorful.

These fish tacos were a hit at my last party! The cilantro-savoy slaw was the perfect complement to the flaky halibut. I'll definitely be making these again.
