Ingredients

For 4 servings

  • 500 g tilapia fillet
  • 12 corn tortilla
  • 2 avocado
  • 2 lime
  • 1/2 red cabbage
  • 1 carrot
  • 1/4 cup cilantro
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 egg
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • salt — to taste
  • black pepper — to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. 2

    Slice tilapia fillets into strips. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

  3. 3

    Place flour on a plate, beat eggs in a bowl, and place panko breadcrumbs on another plate.

  4. 4

    Coat fish strips in flour, then dip in egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

  5. 5

    Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and fry fish strips until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Transfer fried fish to a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 10 minutes to ensure they are cooked through.

    While the fish is baking, prepare the avocado lime sauce. Scoop avocados into a bowl, add juice of 1 lime, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and chopped cilantro. Mix until smooth and season with salt and pepper.

  8. 8

    Shred red cabbage and carrot, and toss together to make a slaw. Squeeze the juice of the remaining lime over the slaw and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.

  9. 9

    Warm corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for about a minute on each side.

    Assemble tacos by placing a few fish strips on a tortilla, adding a spoonful of slaw, and drizzling with avocado lime sauce. Serve immediately.
