Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds skinless tilapia fillets
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes), plus wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the fish with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. When hot, add the fish and sear, flipping once, until golden and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Let the fish cool to warm, then shred with a fork. Toss the fish with the oil from the skillet along with the cilantro, lime juice, Worcestershire, jalapeño, onion, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use or for up to 8 hours.

  • Put out the tilapia mixture with the tortillas, lettuce, lime wedges, and sour cream so everyone can make their own tacos.
