Ingredients
Fish Tacos
- 1 1/2 lb. cod (or other flaky white fish)
- 2 tsp. chili powder
- 2 tsp. ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup cotija cheese, crumbled
- extra limes for garnish
Cilantro Lime Slaw
- 3/4 cup cilantro
- 4 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- juice of 1 lime
- 3 tbs sour cream
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 2 cups of pre-packaged slaw mix
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350. Place cod on a lightly oiled baking sheet. In a small bowl, mix chili, cumin, salt, and cayenne. Rub seasoning all over cod. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reached 145 and the fish flakes easily. Remove from oven and flakes into chunks.
- Blend all the Cilantro Lime Slaw ingredients, excluding the slaw mix, in a blender. Combine the slaw mix and half of the sauce in a bowl. Set aside. Use the remaining sauce to top your tacos later.
- Once the fish is done, warm the tortillas. Top them with slaw, flaked fish, cotija cheese, and additional sauce if you like. Squeeze a little bit of lime juice on top for extra zing.
Notes
Store leftover fish in the fridge for three days. The slaw will keep in the refrigerator for one day.
