Enjoy a delicious and easy-to-make meal with crispy fish and refreshing cabbage slaw wrapped in a warm tortilla. This sandwich combines crunchy fish with cool, crunchy slaw for a perfect balance of textures and flavors.
Ingredients Needed
- 4 white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large flour or corn tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey or sugar
- Olive oil for frying
Preparation Steps
Start by preparing the cabbage slaw. In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage, grated carrot, chopped cilantro, mayonnaise, lime juice, and honey. Mix well and set aside.
Next, prepare the crispy fish. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper. Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each fish fillet first in flour, then dip in eggs, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the fish fillets until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Assembling the Sandwiches
Warm the tortillas slightly to make them more pliable. Place a crispy fish fillet on each tortilla, then top with a generous amount of cabbage slaw.
Fold the tortillas over the filling or roll them up to create a handheld sandwich. Serve immediately for the best crunch and freshness.
