Tacos get the summer treatment when fresh fish is easier to come by. A simple blend of common seasonings lets the flaky fish take on all of the flavors without being too heavy. Cabbage slaw adds the perfect crunch to this beachside meal.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the cabbage, 1/4 cup of the cilantro, the scallions, vinegar, 1 teaspoon of the oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a bowl.
