Tilapia Fish Tacos

Servings 2 People

Ingredients

  • 12 oz pkg Coleson's Catch Tilapia thawed
  • Marinade #1 
  • 2 tsp. Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp. garlic chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper Marinade #2
  • 2 tsp. Cajun seasoning*
  • 1 tsp. garlic chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Lime Juice
  • Salt and Pepper

Instructions

  • Since the Tilapia has a nice flavor on its own you can just season it with lemon, garlic, salt and pepper and the flavor is great.
  • If you want a big bold flavor try the chili-powder or Cajun marinades.
  • With the bolder marinades, I find I don't need salsa, just vegetables and cheese.
  • I like to marinate the fish for at least 8 hours, bake the fish fillets whole, and then cut them after they are cooked.
  • Serve the tacos with your favorite garnishes.
