Ingredients

1 ½ cups shredded cabbage
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 serving cooking spray
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 pound tilapia fillets
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon onion powder
½ cup Monterey Jack cheese
½ cup mango-peach salsa, or to taste

Steps:

Mix cabbage, mayonnaise, cilantro, and lime juice together in a medium bowl until combined. Set coleslaw aside.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Make 2 stacks of tortillas and wrap tightly in aluminum foil.
Rinse fish and pat dry. Cut into 3/4-inch pieces and lay in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Place tortillas in the oven to heat during the last 5 minutes.
Place a small amount of Monterey Jack cheese on the bottom of each tortilla. Top with tilapia pieces, coleslaw, and salsa.
