| Tilapia fillets are seasoned twice—once during the sear and once after—to create a deep flavor profile that pairs perfectly with a cool, salty queso fresco crema.

| == Directions ==
| |
| | |
| === 1. Preparation ===
| |
| # '''Mix Fish Seasoning:''' In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
| |
| # '''Make the Slaw:''' In a medium bowl, mix the shredded cabbage, cilantro, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper. Let this sit to allow the flavors to marry.
| |
| # '''Prepare Crema:''' Whisk the crumbled queso fresco, milk, garlic powder, and paprika together until it reaches a smooth, drizzling consistency.
| |
| | |
| === 2. Cooking the Fish ===
| |
| # '''Sear:''' Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
| |
| # '''Season:''' Add the tilapia fillets. Sprinkle each side generously with the lemon pepper seasoning.
| |
| # '''Cook:''' Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
| |
| | |
| === 3. Finishing & Serving ===
| |
| # '''Toss:''' Transfer the hot fish to a bowl. Add the pre-mixed fish seasonings and toss until the fillets are broken up into bite-sized pieces and evenly coated.
| |
| # '''Assemble:''' Serve in warm tortillas topped with the zesty slaw, a drizzle of the queso fresco crema, and sriracha sauce.
