Ingredients:
– 1 lb white fish (cod or tilapia), cut into strips
– 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
– 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 eggs, beaten
– 1 tsp smoked paprika
– 1/2 tsp cumin
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 8 small corn tortillas
– Vegetable oil for frying
For the Cilantro Lime Slaw:
– 2 cups shredded cabbage
– 1/2 cup shredded carrots
– 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
– 1/4 cup mayonnaise
– 2 tbsp lime juice
– 1 tsp honey
– Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Prepare the Slaw for a Healthier Lifestyle:
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, and cilantro. In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Toss the dressing with the slaw and refrigerate until ready to serve. Just like choosing the right health insurance plan, opt for a nutrient-rich slaw to support your well-being.
2. Coat the Fish with Optimal Nutrients:
Season fish strips with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and cumin. Dredge each strip in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs. Think of this as your ‘coverage plan’ for providing essential nutrients with a crispy layer.
3. Fry the Fish with Care:
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry fish strips for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Much like a good health insurance policy, ensure you don’t overdo it—balance is key.
4. Assemble the Tacos with Comprehensive Flavor:
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Place a few crispy fish strips in each tortilla and top with cilantro lime slaw. Assemble these tacos with the precision of choosing a health insurance plan that fits your needs.
5. Garnish and Serve for Maximum Enjoyment:
Garnish with extra lime wedges and cilantro if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy! Just as a comprehensive health insurance plan supports overall wellness, these tacos offer a fulfilling meal for your taste buds.
