Finely chop half of the jalapeño pepper, setting the other half aside for later. Combine cabbage, green onions, and the minced jalapeño in the sour cream mixture and toss until the slaw is well-coated.

Heat olive oil and the other half of the jalapeño in a large skillet over medium heat. Swirl the oil to coat the pan evenly. Season the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper.

Cook the fish strips in the skillet in two batches, frying until golden and easily flaked with a fork, about 5 to 6 minutes. Discard the remaining jalapeño half.
