Description

A zesty cabbage slaw and fresh crema top these baked cod fish tacos in warm tortillas, providing a tasty change from traditional chicken or beef.

Ingredients

1 pound cod fillets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lime, zested and juiced, divided
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch salt
1 small head red cabbage, shredded
1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
6 (7 inch) flour tortillas
1 tomato, diced

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Place cod fillets in a casserole dish and drizzle with olive oil and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Season with cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and break apart the fish in the baking dish with 2 forks.
4 Meanwhile, combine sour cream, garlic, lime zest, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and a pinch of salt for crema in a bowl. Combine cabbage, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and vinegar for cabbage slaw in another bowl.
5 Warm tortillas in the microwave on default mode with a dampened paper towel draped over, 30 to 45 seconds.
6 Assemble tacos by layering each tortilla with cod, cabbage slaw, crema, and tomato. Serve hot.
