Ingredients
Directions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onions until translucent, then add the minced garlic and stir well.
- Add the tilapia to the skillet and cook until the flesh starts to flake. Add the chopped jalapeño peppers, tomatoes, cilantro, and lime juice.
- Sauté over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, breaking up the fish with a spoon to mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat the tortillas on a skillet for a few minutes on each side until warm (no oil needed). Serve each tortilla with a little over 1/4 cup of the fish mixture and a slice or two of avocado.
