Tilapia fillets are pan-fried in a jalapeno-infused oil and served with a quick cabbage slaw. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from jalapeno peppers before adding to the slaw.

Mix sour cream and lime juice together in a large bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Reserve about half the mixture in another bowl for serving. Mince half the jalapeno pepper; save other half for later. Toss cabbage, green onions, and minced jalapeno half in remaining sour cream mixture until slaw is well mixed.

Heat olive oil and remaining jalapeno half in a large skillet over medium heat; swirl oil to coat skillet evenly. Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper. Pan-fry fish strips in the skillet in 2 batches until fish is golden brown and easily flaked with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes. Discard jalapeno half.

Heat tortillas in the microwave on high until warm, 20 to 30 seconds.

Serve fish in warmed tortillas topped with cabbage slaw, reserved sour cream mixture, and cilantro.
