Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 2 sliced green onions
- 1 dash cumin
- 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
- 2 cups coleslaw
- 1 dash ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1 pound fish (I've used this for grouper, snapper, sheepshead)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons oil for frying (I like to use reserved bacon grease)
- 1 lemon
- corn tortillas
- 1–2 avocados
Preparation
Combine the tomatoes, cilantro, green onion, cumin and 3 tablespoons of lime juice. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Combine the coleslaw, pepper, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Combine all of the ingredients for the creamy fish sauce. Mix well; refrigerate until ready to use.
Combine flour, cornmeal, parsley, pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and garlic powder in a dish until well combined.
Dredge filets in the cornmeal/ flour mixture until well coated.
Heat oil in a large skillet (I prefer cast iron) over medium heat, and fry each side until it's a golden color.
Remove from heat to paper-towel-lined plate and sprinkle with lemon juice. Keep warm while the remaining fish cooks.
Heat tortillas and build tacos with fish, creamy sauce, coleslaw, tomato salsa, and avocado.
