Mis en place
Prep all of your taco toppings first. The fish won’t take long to cook, so make sure everything else you need for serving is ready before you begin.
Mix the seasoning for the fish. In a small bowl, combine chile powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.
Season the fillets on both sides, rubbing the spice mixture in well. Set aside.
Prepare the tortillas
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Cook the tortillas on a large skillet for about 30 seconds per side (just until they are toasted).
Wrap the finished tortillas in tin foil and place in the oven to stay warm.
Cook the fish
Heat a skillet to medium high heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the fish to the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until browned. (Timing will depend on the thickness of your fillets).
Remove from the pan and break into pieces.
