Ingredients
Directions
Step 1
Rinse fish and pat dry; cut into four equal portions.
Step 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.
Step 3
Meanwhile, mash avocado in another bowl. Add sour cream, cilantro, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and mix until smooth.
Step 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.
Step 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.
Step 6
Serve fish on warmed tortillas topped with shredded cabbage and a dollop of the avocado sauce. Plate with lime wedges.
