Step 1
Marinate the Fish
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the fish. Ensure all fillets are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 2
Prepare the Sauce
In a bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, sriracha, smoked paprika, lime juice, and salt until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 3
Bake the Fish
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Once the pan is hot, add a little olive oil to coat the bottom.
- Place the marinated Mahi Mahi fillets in the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 4
Assemble the Tacos
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame until pliable.
- Break the baked Mahi Mahi fillets into bite-sized pieces.
- Fill each tortilla with pieces of fish.
- Top with diced pineapple, diced avocado, and thinly sliced jalapeno.
- Drizzle with the sauce.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Serve the tacos immediately, accompanied by extra lime wedges and any remaining sauce on the side.
