Instructions

  • Light up your charcoal chimney and prep everything else while that's preheating
  • Prepare coleslaw: Finely slice 1 head of purple cabbage and combine in a bowl with cilantro, green onions and jalapenos. Mix in 1-2 cups store-bought coleslaw dressing and the juice and zest of 1 lime
  • Season your tilapia fillets with your seasoning of choice 
  • Slice your lemons, limes, and oranges into rings (these will act as a heat deflector)
  • Slice 1 Jalapeno into rings for toppings
  • Prepare the avocado cream sauce by combining 16 oz sour cream with 2 avocados and the juice and zest of 1 lime
  • Add your charcoal to the grill and arrange your citrus rings so they cover the top rack
  • Place the fish on top of the citrus rings and close the grill
  • Allow the fish to come up to 145*F internal temp or until it flakes away nicely 
  • Char your tortillas and build your tacos
  • Tortilla, coleslaw, fish, cream sauce, crumbled cotija cheese, jalapeno ring and a squeeze of lime. Enjoy!!
