Directions:
Place fillets in a shallow baking dish. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together canola oil, lime juice, salt, and spices. Pour mixture over fish, cover, and place in the refrigerate to marinate for 30 to 45 minutes. Over medium high heat, heat stove top grill pan or griddle. Remove fish from refrigerator and place on grill. Cook fish for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of fillets. Fish should flake easily with a fork. Place tortillas on the grill and grill for 10 to 15 seconds on each side.
Chic Tip: For a chicer presentation when serving, spread an even amount of red cabbage onto the bottom of each tortilla, top with an even amount of fillet portions, and spread an even amount of mango salsa on top of each. Fold filled tortillas and place together in a serving dish.
Healthy Tip: Mangos are full of anti cancer properties so you’re not only eating something that's good, but good for you! Plus, because mangos are cooling, they are great thirst quenchers.”
