Fish Tacos with Sour Cream & Cheese

by 3 Sisters Bake

Linsey developed a minor fish taco addiction while on holiday in California last year, where the influences of Mexican cooking are evident in almost every restaurant and café. The seasoned white fish makes a lovely, light alternative to beef or chicken tacos that we are more familiar with in the UK.

Instructions:

Step 1

Combine all the salsa ingredients ahead of time and set aside to let the flavours come together and deepen. Preheat oven to 100 degrees.

Step 2

Cover the top of each fish fillet with a good layer of the Cajun spices.

Step 3

Heat a frying pan over a medium to high heat and brush over with the coconut oil. When the pan is hot, add the fish, unseasoned side down. Fry for 3 minutes, then turn to seasoned side. Fry for a further 4 minutes. Fish should be just cooked through and the seasoned side beginning to blacken nicely.

Step 4

While the fish is frying, put the tortillas or taco shells in the oven to warm gently.

Step 5

Remove fish from pan allow to cool slightly, then slice in to ½ cm strips.

Step 6

Load each tortilla or taco shell with iceberg lettuce, avocado pieces, salsa, cooked fish, drizzle of yoghurt and sprinkling of cheddar. Serve with wedges of lime.
