Step by Step Method

Step 1

In a large, nonstick skillet, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Drizzle tilapia fillets with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season both sides with 1 tablespoon salt and pepper.

Step 3

Arrange half the fish in a single layer in the pan and cook until the flesh is flaky and cooked through, 2-3 minutes on each side. Repeat with remaining fish. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a medium bowl combine avocado, mango, cilantro, scallions, and arugula.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Step 6

Drizzle over avocado mixture and toss to coat.

Step 7

In a bowl, mix creme fraiche, wasabi powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt until smooth.

Step 8

Warm tortillas by heating in batches in a dry skillet, turning occasionally until warm.

Step 9

Divide the mango-avocado salad among the tortillas.

Step 10

Top with fish and some wasabi creme fraiche.

These are great fish tacos which we enjoyed, especially the arugula mango salad and/or salsas -- I think it could be either one! I used the sour cream option and chives instead of scallions but otherwise made as directed. Delicious! Thanks for sharing!

This is absolutely delicious and going into my Best of 2019 file. It's worth it to take the time to do all of the components. I especially loved the mango, avocado salsa! I took a little bit of the arugula out - so maybe about a cup and a half. I will definitely be making these again. Thank you!
