Spicy Tilapia Tacos and Jicama Slaw with Dancing Crow Sauv Blanc

Ingredients:
For the tacos

1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp onion pownder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp Olive oil
12 warm tortillas or lettuce wraps

For the sauce

1/2 cup plain Greek Yogurt
1 chipotle pepper in adobe sauce, plus 1 tsp adobe sauce
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions:

Step 1: In a small bowl, add the ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and salt. Stir to combine.
For the sauce, add all ingredients to a small blender and blend until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Step 2: Pat the tilapia fillets with a paper towel on both sides to remove any excess moisture. Season both sides of the fillets with the seasoning mixture.

Step 3: Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through. (I used the air fryer - I love how it makes the fish crunchy on the outside but perfectly done internally.) Flake fish into bite-size pieces with fork.

Serve in warm corn/flour tortillas or in a romaine lettuce wrap for a healthier option. Top with the chipotle lime sauce, sliced radishes, shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped cilantro and lime wedges.
**I added Jicama slaw for a little more heat and crunch! (recipe below)
