Fish tacos are, in my opinion, the perfect summer meal. They are light and fresh, and pair especially well with an ice cold Corona and plenty of limes to squeeze on top!<\/p>\n<p>Fish Tacos<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>4-8 tilapia fillets, seasoned (I\u00a0<em>highly\u00a0<\/em>recommend Trader Joe&#8217;s Garlic Chili Tilapia)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 head red cabbage<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 head savoy cabbage<\/li>\n<li>2 limes (at least)<\/li>\n<li>2 Tbsp red wine vinegar<\/li>\n<li>2 tsp sugar<\/li>\n<li>soft corn tortillas<\/li>\n<li>2 avocados, sliced thinly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For Sauce<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 cup sour cream<\/li>\n<li>1 lime, squeezed<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp cumin<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp coriander<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp dill<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp oregano<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp ancho chile powder<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp capers, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1 Tbsp cilantro, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1 Tbsp chives, chopped<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Make sauce a day ahead if possible so flavors can meld overnight.

I prefer to put the sauce down first, then some fish, cabbage slaw, and a slice of avocado (though my boys pleaded for guacamole on theirs, of course). Top with a nice squeeze of lime and try not to devour the entire platter by yourself.
