Preparation
1
Prep

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Thinly slice green onions.

2
Make coleslaw

  • To a medium bowl, add mayo, vinegar, and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
  • Add cabbage, carrots and half the green onions, then toss to combine.

3
Coat tilapia

  • Pat tilapia dry with paper towels, pressing well to absorb as much moisture as possible. Cut tilapia into bite-size pieces. 
  • To a large bowl, add tilapia, Enchilada Spice Blend and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.

4
Cook tilapia

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then tilapia. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until tilapia is opaque and cooked through.**
  • Transfer to a plate and set aside.

5
Make garlic crema

  • To a small bowl, add sour cream, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) garlic. (NOTE: Like things zesty? Add all of the garlic!) 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

6
Warm tortillas and serve

  • Wrap tortillas in paper towels.
  • Microwave until warm and flexible, 30 sec-1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm tortillas.)
  • Divide tortillas between plates. Top with some coleslaw, then tilapia. 
  • Dollop garlic crema over top.
  • Sprinkle with remaining green onions overtop.

7

If you've opted to get tilapia, pat dry with paper towels, pressing well to absorb as much moisture as possible. Cut tilapia into bite-size pieces. To cook tilapia, increase frying time to 4-6 min.

8

Chauffer une grande poêle antiadhésive à feu moyen-élevé. Lorsqu'elle est chaude, ajouter 1 c. à soupe (2 c. à soupe) d'huile, puis ajouter le tilapia. Poêler de 3 à 4 min de chaque côté, jusqu'à ce que le tilapia soit entièrement cuit.

9

Diviser chaque filet de tilapia en 6 morceaux égaux. Répartir les tortillas dans les assiettes. Garnir de salade de chou, puis de tilapia.
