Serves: 4

12 oz whitefish, such as cod or tilapia
Salt, to taste (optional)
Pepper, to taste (optional)
1/4 head Napa cabbage (1 1/2 cups)

Zest and juice of 1 lime (1/2 tsp zest, 1 Tbsp juice)
4 wheat tortillas (8-inch diameter), lightly grilled or toasted
1/4 cup (4 Tbsp ) green tomatillo sauce

Season fish with salt and pepper if you like. Then bake fish at 375 F for about 20 minutes until internal temperature reaches 145 F. Or grill fish if you prefer.

Place remaining ingredients except tortillas and green tomatillo sauce in a mixing bowl and toss to combine. Flake and place fish on tortillas. Top with cabbage mixture and a tablespoon of green tomatillo sauce, and enjoy.
