Ingredients

Corn tortillas are traditional with fish tacos and have a really great flavor, but you can use flour tortillas if you'd prefer.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 500° with racks in top and bottom positions and a baking sheet on each rack.

Stir together yogurt, mayonnaise, sugar, chiles, and juice of ½ a lime in a small bowl; let stand 10 minutes; chill until ready to serve.

Marinate tilapia fillets in lime juice, turning to coat, 10 minutes total.

Blend flour, cornmeal, chili powder, and salt in a shallow dish. Coat marinated fish with flour mixture. Remove hot pan from oven and coat with nonstick spray. Place fillets on hot pan and roast on top rack, 5 minutes. Carefully flip fish and return to oven, 34 minutes more.

Spray both sides of tortillas with nonstick spray. Oven-toast tortillas on second heated baking sheet until lightly crisp around the edges, 23 minutes.

Serve fish and tortillas with sauce, shredded cabbage, and Mango-Avocado Salsa.

Dredge both sides of marinated tilapia in flour mixture; place on a wire rack until all are coated.
