    • 2 tablespoons cilantro leaves
    • 🍋 1 teaspoon lime zest

  • Fish

    • 4 filets trout

  • Seasonings

    • 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon tapioca starch
    • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    • 2 teaspoons chipotle powder
    • 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano

  • Dairy

  • Pantry

    • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Wrap tortillas in foil.

2

Bake tortillas in the preheated oven until warm, 8 to 10 minutes.

3

Meanwhile, place cabbage, white parts of green onion, coleslaw mix, Mexican crema, lime zest, juice of 2 lime wedges, and cilantro in a large bowl. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

4

Carefully remove skin from trout. Cut each trout filet into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Stir tapioca starch, cumin, chipotle powder, and Mexican oregano together in a shallow bowl.

5

Dip fish pieces into seasoning mixture to coat.

6

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add coated fish pieces; cook until golden brown and fish flakes easily with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

7

Using 2 corn tortillas for each taco, divide fish, slaw, and guacamole between the tacos. Garnish each with green tops of scallions.

8

Serve with remaining lime wedges and crema on the side. Enjoy!
