Preparation
Sauté the cubanelle pepper
Halve, core and thinly slice the cubanelle pepper lengthwise; halve crosswise. In a large pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the cubanelle pepper and S&P. Sauté, 1 to 2 min., until crisp-tender. Add ⅓ of the vinegar; toss well. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out and reserve the pan.
Cook the tilapia
Pat the tilapia dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices and S&P. In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the tilapia* and cook, 2 to 3 min. per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and flake into large pieces.
Make the slaw
Meanwhile, thinly slice the scallion crosswise. In a large bowl, combine the remaining vinegar and spices, a drizzle of oil and S&P. Add the cabbage, cubanelle pepper and scallion; toss well.
Warm the tortillas
Wrap the tortillas in a slightly dampened paper towel. On a plate, microwave, in 10 sec. increments, until warm.
Make the garlic mayo
In a small bowl, combine the mayo, garlic and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the tortillas between your plates. Spread with a spoonful of the garlic mayo. Top with the tilapia and a spoonful of the slaw. Serve the remaining garlic mayo and slaw on the side. Bon appétit!
