radishes.png
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro (roots and thick stems removed)
  • 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2 limes)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 1/2 bunch radishes, trimmed, and julienned
  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 jalapeno chile (ribs and seeds removed, for less heat), minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless tilapia fillets (about 4)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 12 6-inch corn tortillas

Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat.

In a blender, combine cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 tablespoons oil, and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper. Blend until pureed. Set salsa aside.

In a small bowl, mix together remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice, remaining tablespoon oil, radishes, scallions, and jalapeno; season with salt and pepper. Set radish slaw aside.

Place tilapia on a rimmed baking sheet; season with coriander, salt, and pepper. Broil until opaque throughout, 4 to 5 minutes; break up into chunks.

Meanwhile, using tongs, hold tortillas over a gas flame until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds per side or wrap tortillas in damp paper towels, and microwave on high until warm and soft, about 1 minute.

To assemble, fill tortillas with fish and radish slaw, drizzle with salsa verde and fold.
