Optional moves for when you want to impress.
- Toss the cabbage with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of salt so it feels more like a proper slaw.
- Add thinly sliced red onion or quick pickled onions for sharper contrast.
- Swap in shrimp when you want the same flavor profile in an even faster dinner.
- Crumble a little cotija over the top if you want a salty finish.
