Combine garlic, cumin, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
2.
Stir in lime juice and vinegar. Whisk in sour cream and mayonnaise.
3.
Slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil, whisking constantly.
4.
Stir in bell pepper, carrot, and red onion. Cover and chill at least 30 minutes.
5.
Brush fish with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and rub with remaining 2 tablespoons chili powder and kosher salt to taste.
6.
Grill fish over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
7.
While fish cooks, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave on high 1 minute or until pliable.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer bell pepper mixture from the dressing to a large bowl. Stir in cilantro and serrano chiles, if desired.
9.
Add cabbage, and toss thoroughly, adding additional dressing if desired.
