    Meanwhile, place cabbage, white parts of green onion, coleslaw mix, 3 tablespoons Mexican crema, lime zest, juice of 2 lime wedges, and cilantro in a large bowl. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Set aside..

    Carefully remove skin from trout. Cut each trout filet into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Stir tapioca starch, cumin, chipotle powder, and Mexican oregano together in a shallow bowl.

    Dip fish pieces into seasoning mixture to coat.

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add coated fish pieces; cook until golden brown and fish flakes easily with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a drip tray, and season with salt.

    Using 2 corn tortillas for each taco, divide fish, slaw, and guacamole between the tacos. Garnish each with green tops of scallions. Serve with remaining lime wedges and crema on the side. Enjoy!
