Description

Warm-weather fruits like mango and pineapple add a tropical flavor to a simple mango slaw for fish tacos made with baked cod.

Ingredients

1 pound cod fillets
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 cups shredded cabbage
1/2 cup chopped fresh mango
1/2 cup chopped fresh pineapple
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, chopped
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2 Place cod fillets on a large sheet of aluminum foil; pour lemon juice over fish and season with salt and black pepper. Fold foil around fish and seal to create a pouch; place pouch in a baking dish.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
4 Meanwhile, whisk vinegar, mayonnaise, sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl until smooth. Combine cabbage, mango, pineapple, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño in a large bowl. Pour dressing over vegetables and fruit; toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate slaw until ready to serve.
5 Divide fish evenly among flour tortillas. Spoon slaw over fish to serve.
