Grilled Fish Tacos with Cabbage Citrus Slaw - T25 Fast Track Meal Plan

Grilled Fish Tacos with Cabbage Citrus Slaw

This week we are on week 4 of T25 Alpha and we decided to step it up a notch by doing the 5 Day Fast Track plan that comes with the program. We also are following this plan in preparation for the new 21 Day Fix program that we'll be starting in the next week or two!

I have not been a huge fish fan but have started really playing with how it is prepared and this one was a hit for sure!!  It is low on calories, delicious and filling! ONE serving is three tacos...I was a happy girl :) Hubby isn't quite as impressed as I am with the fish so I made his with grilled chicken instead. If you're leery of fish like I was, don't be!! These fish tacos are delicious. Enjoy!

Ingredients: (1 serving)
6oz raw talapia, washed, patted dry

1/4 tsp salt (I skipped this step)
3 (4 inch) corn tortillas
3/4 cup shredded cabbage (what I bought also includes shredded carrots)
6 fresh cilantro sprigs
2 TBS fresh lime juice
1 dash cayenne pepper, optional (I used Mrs. Dash salt free Chipotle seasoning)
1/4 avocado, cut into 6 slices

Directions:
1. Marinade fish morning of so it can marinate all day. I just used 1/2 a lime squeezed in and a few generous shakes of the chipotle seasoning in a zip lock bag.

2. Preheat broiler to high.

3. Remove fish (chicken) from marinade and discard remaining marinade. Broil the fish 3-5 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily when tested with a fork. Set aside. Chicken will take a bit longer, cook until no longer pink inside.

4. Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to warm.


5. Place tortillas on a serving plate. Top each tortilla with 1/3 fish, cabbage and cilantro. Season with lime juice and cayenne (if desired). Top with two avocado slices. We also topped with a little fresh salsa :)
