Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
Make slaw
2
  • 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.
Coat tilapia
3
  • Pat tilapia dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To a large bowl, add tilapia, Enchilada Spice Blend and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
Cook tilapia
4
  • In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high.
  • When hot, add tilapia. Cook for 3-5 min, stirring occasionally, until tilapia is opaque and cooked through.**
  • Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Make garlic crema
5
  • 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.
Finish and serve
6
  • Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels.
  • Microwave for 30 sec-1 min, until tortillas are warm and flexible. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)
  • Divide tortillas between plates. Top with some coleslaw, then tilapia. 
  • Dollop garlic crema over top.
  • Sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
7

If you've opted to get tilapia, pat dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Coat and cook tilapia in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the shrimp, increasing frying time to 3-5 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.
