STEPS

1

Mix sour cream and lime juice together in a large bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Reserve about half the mixture in another bowl for serving.

2

Mince half the jalapeño pepper; save other half for later. Toss cabbage, green onions, and minced jalapeño half in remaining sour cream mixture until slaw is well mixed.

3

Heat olive oil and remaining jalapeño half in a large skillet over medium heat; swirl oil to coat skillet evenly. Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper.

4

Pan-fry fish strips in the skillet in 2 batches until fish is golden brown and easily flaked with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes. Discard jalapeño half.

5

Heat tortillas in the microwave on high until warm, 20 to 30 seconds.

6

Serve fish in warmed tortillas topped with cabbage slaw, reserved sour cream mixture, and cilantro.
