Ingredients
- 1 pound white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
- 8 small corn or flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Optional: sesame seeds and chopped cilantro for garnish
Preparation Steps
Start by marinating the fish. Place the fillets in a shallow dish and pour the teriyaki sauce over them. Let sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the fish marinates, prepare the Asian slaw. In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, and green onions. In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, until the fish is cooked through and slightly caramelized.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Flake the cooked fish into bite-sized pieces.
Assemble the tacos by placing pieces of fish onto each tortilla, then topping with the Asian slaw. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro if desired.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these flavorful tacos with a side of steamed jasmine rice or a light miso soup for a complete Asian-inspired meal. They are perfect for lunch, dinner, or even a casual party menu.
