FISH TACOS WITH HONEY-CUMIN CILANTRO SLAW AND CHIPOTLE MAYO
I loved a local chain restaurant's fish tacos so much, that I had to try to duplicate them. They combine flour tortillas filled with breaded, fried tilapia, layered with chipotle mayo, topped with napa cabbage, dressed with honey-cumin sauce, and served with pico de gallo, sour cream, chips and salsa. You'll find them very refreshing and packed full of flavor!

Steps:
- Place the tilapia chunks in a flat dish and pour 1/2 cup lime juice over the fish. Cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the honey-cumin sauce by whisking together 1/3 cup lime juice, honey, vegetable oil, and ground cumin a small bowl. Set aside until needed.
- To make the chipotle mayonnaise dressing, place the mayonnaise, chilies, adobo sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper together in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Cover, and refrigerate until needed.
- To bread the fish, place the flour, eggs, and panko crumbs in three separate shallow dishes. Season the fish with salt and pepper to taste. Dip the fish pieces first in the four, coating evenly, and shaking off any excess. Dip next in the eggs, and last in the panko crumbs, patting the pieces to help the breadcrumbs hold. Set the fish aside on a plate.
- To cook the breaded fish, pour 1 cup vegetable oil into a skillet to 1/4 inch deep. Heat the oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C) over medium heat. Cook the fish, turning until all sides are golden brown, and flesh is easily flaked with a fork. Drain on paper towels. Brush the fish with the honey-cumin sauce.
- Mix the coleslaw and cilantro together in a bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of the chipotle mayonnaise dressing, and pour the remaining dressing over the coleslaw mixture. Toss to coat evenly with the dressing.
- Place the tortillas on a flat surface, and spread each with 1 tablespoon reserved chipotle mayonnaise dressing. Divide the fish between the tortillas. Top with the cilantro coleslaw.

Steps:
- In a medium or large bowl, combine green and white cabbage, cilantro, lime juice (start with 1 Tbsp), honey, salt and pepper. Taste and add additional lime juice or honey as desired. Stir to combine well and set aside until ready to serve. The salt and lime juice will help soften and break down the cabbage.
- In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Place fish in a shallow container (or zip-tip bag). Pat dry with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel (this will help your seasoning mix stick). Rub with all of your seasoning blend, coating generously.
- Heat avocado oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Working in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan, cook fillets 3-4 minutes per side or until fish is opaque and cooked through. Repeat with remaining fish. Gently separate cooked fish into small sections for tacos.
- To assemble your tacos, spoon slaw and fish into corn tortillas. Add your favorite extras, such as avocado slices, additional fresh cilantro, etc. Drizzle with tomatillo ranch, citrus avocado sauce, or a dollop of guacamole.

Steps:
- Cut each fish filet into slices. The slices can be up to an inch thick and roughly the size of a tortilla (3-4 inches long).
- Pat the fish filets dry with a paper towel and sprinkle them with 1/4 tsp. kosher salt and pepper. (It's important that the fish is not too damp or it will steam in the pan and become rubbery instead of flaky).
- To make the coating simply combine 1 cup gluten free flour blend (or AP flour), 2 tsp. cumin, 2 tsp. chili powder, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder , and 1/2 tsp. each of kosher salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir until completely combined.
- Place the pieces of fish onto a large plate, platter, or bowl and pour some of the flour mixture over the top. Flip each of the fish filets over a few times until each piece is completely coated in the flour mixture. Shake each piece of fish to remove any excess flour and repeat until all the fish is coated.
- Heat the skillet to slightly hotter than medium and add 2 Tbsp. of oil. Make sure the oil is thoroughly heated before adding the fish to the skillet (the fish should sizzle once it hits the pan).
- Fry the fish for 4-5 minutes on the first side. Do not move the fish around much or the coating will not stick. Once the first side has developed a golden brown coating flip it over and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side.
- Once each side has developed a golden brown coating remove the fish from the skillet and place it on a plate or paper towel. Add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Repeat with the second batch of fish, adding more oil to the pan so that it doesn't stick to the bottom. Repeat the process until all of the fish is cooked.
- Place ¾ cup sour cream, ¼ cup mayo, 2 cloves garlic, 1-2 jalapenos (remove seeds and membranes), the juice of 1 large lime (or 2 small limes), ½ tsp. kosher salt and pepper, and 1 cup fresh cilantro in a food processor or blender. Pulse until the dressing is completely combined.
- Chop 8 cups of fresh cabbage (red or green) and place it in a large bowl. You can also use a bag of shredded cabbage to save time if you like.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage and toss until completely combined. The coleslaw may be prepare 1-2 hours or even the day ahead and stored in the fridge until ready to serve. Alternately, you can make it right before serving.
- To Serve: Place the pan fried fish on a couple of warmed corn tortillas. Pile a generous amount of spicy coleslaw on top. Additional toppings may be added if desired.
