Ingredients
  

8 small corn tortillas

2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced

1 cup shredded red cabbage

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 avocado, sliced

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon lime juice

1 teaspoon chili powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: Lime wedges and sliced fresh jalapeños for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: In a mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced peaches with olive oil, honey, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Toss the ingredients gently to ensure the peaches are evenly coated. Allow the mixture to marinate for about 10-15 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.

    Make the Cabbage Slaw: In a separate bowl, combine the shredded red cabbage with a pinch of salt and a splash of lime juice. Toss to mix, then let it sit for a few minutes. This process will help soften the cabbage and enhance its flavor.

      Fry the Tortillas: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Lightly fry each corn tortilla for approximately 30 seconds on each side until they become warm and pliable. For a crispier texture, brush both sides of each tortilla with olive oil and place them directly on the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown and slightly crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove the tortillas from the skillet and drain them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

        Assemble the Tacos: Lay each crispy tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start by layering the marinated peaches in the center of each tortilla. Follow with a generous portion of the cabbage slaw, slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese. Finish by garnishing with fresh cilantro.

          Serve: Arrange the assembled tacos on a beautiful serving platter. Add lime wedges and sliced fresh jalapeños as optional garnishes for those who prefer an extra kick. Enjoy your crispy peach tacos immediately for the best texture and flavor!
