Ingredients

• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
• 12 corn tortillas, warmed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion, red bell pepper, jalapeño, and garlic in hot oil until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a plate and set aside.

Step 2

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same pan. Cook swai in hot oil, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add chili powder, salt, cumin, and black pepper; cook and stir until fish is opaque in the center, 1 to 2 minutes. Return vegetables to the pan and cook until heated through.

Divide fish and vegetables between tortillas. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese.
