Description

These air fryer fish tacos feature crispy, seasoned cod with a zesty, lime-flavored, caramelized cabbage slaw for an easy-to-make, mouthwatering meal.

Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray
4 cups cabbage slaw mix
1 tablespoon chopped fresh jalapeno pepper
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
1 pound cod fillets, cut into bite-sized pieces
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas

Directions

1 Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
2 Combine cabbage slaw, jalapeño pepper, lime juice, olive oil, vinegar, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Mix until evenly combined and set aside.
3 Mix together flour, cornmeal, and taco seasoning in a medium bowl until well combined. Add cod and toss until evenly coated; discard any excess seasoning mixture. Place coated cod in the prepared air fryer basket and mist lightly with cooking spray.
4 Cook in the preheated air fryer for 5 minutes. Shake the basket and continue cooking until fish is crispy and flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes more. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
5 Place cabbage slaw mixture into the air fryer basket.
6 Cook in the air fryer until cabbage is caramelized, about 8 minutes, stirring halfway.
7 Spoon cabbage slaw evenly onto tortillas and top with fish.
