Get your kids involved in making these mouthwatering — and healthy — fish tacos. Let them mix together the topping for the fish as well as the simple cabbage slaw. Fruit salsa adds an element of fun to this classic Mexican dish.
Ingredients:
2 pounds cod fillets, rinsed, patted dry
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of 2 limes
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove minced
6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, divided
2 cups red cabbage, shredded
1/2 cup green onions, chopped
1-1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
8 corn tortillas, warmed
Sour cream
Homemade or store-bought fruit salsa (mango or peach)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place fish in a baking dish. Season with salt and pepper.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together oil, lime juice, onion, garlic, and 4 tablespoons cilantro. Spoon mixture on top of fish. Cover baking dish loosely with foil. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes when pressed gently with the back of a fork.
3. Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, mix cabbage, green onion, remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro and the cider vinegar until well-combined.
4. Divide fish among tortillas, flaking slightly. Add 1/4 cup of slaw to each and fold tortilla in half to hold filling. Garnish with sour cream and salsa.
