Preparation
Prep 45 m Ready In 45 m
- Grate 1 tsp. zest and squeeze 5 Tbsp. juice from limes. Combine 2 Tbsp. of the juice, 1 Tbsp. oil, chili powder, ¼ tsp. salt and ⅛ tsp. pepper in a small bowl.
- Place fish in a sealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish. Pour in the lime mixture, seal and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine raspberries, pineapple, green onion, jalapeno, the lime zest, 1 Tbsp. lime juice and the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil, ¼ tsp. salt and ⅛ tsp. pepper in a medium bowl. Combine yogurt and the remaining 2 Tbsp. lime juice in a small bowl.
- Coat a 12-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the fish (discard marinade) and cook, turning once, until it flakes easily, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Break the fish into bite-size pieces with a fork. Serve in tortillas topped with cabbage, the salsa, the yogurt mixture and cilantro, with lime wedges on the side, if desired.
