Spicy Cole Slaw for Fish Tacos

1/2 cup of coconut milk
1 tbsp of coconut sugar
2 tbsp of pickled jalapeños diced
2 tbsp of the pickled jalapeños juice
1/4 cup packed cilantro

Fish tacos
For the fish I used tilapia frozen, from Trader Joe’s. I don’t know how I can live miles from the beach and can’t find good seafood. But Trader Joe’s never disappoints.
2 pieces of tilapia(plenty for two people maybe 3)
1 tbsp of blackening seasoning(I also add a dash or two of cayenne pepper for more kick)
2 tbsps of olive oil
1/2 lime or lemon whatever you prefer I like lime
Heat oil to medium-high heat. After seasoning the tilapia with the blackening seasoning, add fish to hot pan sauté for 4 minutes each side. Fish should be white and flaky. I just cut the fish up in the pan for taco sized bites. Everyone in my family has their preferences. I like low carb tortillas, my hubby likes regular flour tortillas. Trader Joe’s has an awesome Habanero Tortillas, little spicy, not what you would expect from a Habanero pepper. I add a little onion, tomato, guacamole, and dairy free sour cream. Dress your taco how you like.
