Ingredients

  2. 4 ½ teaspoons chipotle chili powder
  3. 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  4. 1 teaspoon onion powder
  5. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  6. 1 teaspoon salt
  7. ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  8. 1 large avocado – peeled, pitted, and cubed
  9. ½ cup sour cream
  10. ¼ cup chopped cilantro
  11. nonstick cooking spray
  12. 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
  13. 3 cups shredded cabbage
  14. 3 medium limes, quartered

Instructions

  1. Rinse fish and pat dry; cut into four equal portions.
  2. Mix 4 teaspoons chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Dredge fish in the mixture, patting and dusting for even coverage. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, mash avocado in another bowl. Add sour cream, cilantro, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and mix until smooth.
  4. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Coat the inside of a grill basket with nonstick spray and place fish inside the basket.
  5. Place the basket on the preheated grill and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and transfer fish to a plate. Break into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Serve fish on warmed tortillas topped with shredded cabbage and a dollop of the avocado sauce. Plate with lime wedges.
  7. Tilapia or other white fish can be substituted for the mahi mahi.
