    • 3 limes, for zest/juice, divided
    • 1 tablespoon canola oil
    • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
    • ¼ teaspoon pepper
    • 2 tablespoons + ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, divided
    • 4 (6 oz) white fish fillets (such as tilapia, orange roughy, or flounder; about 1 ½ lb)

    • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
    • 8 extra-thin corn tortillas
    • 2 cups angel hair shredded cabbage
