Ingredients
- 1 pound white fish fillet such as pollock, tilapia or snapper, firm, mild, cut into 8 strips
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups seafood breading mix
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup cabbage shredded
- 1/2 cup red salsa I use pre-made salsa from the refrigerated section of my grocery store
- cilantro optional, sprigs and wedges, for garnish
- lime optional, sprigs and wedges, for garnish
- 8 small corn tortillas
For the sauce:
- 1/3 cup PLAIN yogurt
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons water
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Brush water over the pieces of fish. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper.
- Place the seafood breader on a plate. Roll each piece of fish in the seafood breader until completely coated.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the fish in a single layer and cook until deep golden brown, 3-4 minutes per side. You may need to cook the fish in batches.
- While the fish is cooking, make the sauce. In a small bowl whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, water and salt and pepper to taste, set aside.
- To assemble, place 2 tablespoons of cabbage onto each of the 8 tortillas. Add a piece of fish on top of the cabbage. Add 1 tablespoon of salsa to each taco, then drizzle the white sauce over the top.
- Serve immediately, garnished with cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
