Born-Again Fish Tacos
- Dressing: 1/4 c mayonnaise, 1/4 c sour cream (or crema), 2 T lime juice, 1 tsp sriracha, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, salt to taste
- 3 T butter, melted
- 1/4 c lime juice, divided
- 1 tsp chili powder, such as Gebhardt
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika (smoked paprika is nice)
- 1/2 tsp Diamond kosher salt
- 10-16 oz white fish filet such as cod, snapper, flounder, halibut or grouper
- small corn tortillas for serving
- red and/or green cabbage, red onion, and cilantro for topping
- wedges of limes for serving
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Make the dressing.
Shred the cabbage and finely chop the onion and cilantro; combine them for the taco topping
Mix together butter, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika and salt in a small bowl. Pour the mixture over the fish and place the fish in a small baking pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or just until the fish flakes.
Remove the fish from the oven and break the fish into chunks, using 2 forks. Stir in any sauce still in the pan.
Warm the tortillas over an open flame on a gas stove or on a hot, dry skillet. Flip them once, so that both sides have browned bits. Keep the warmed tortillas in aluminum foil.
Serve by topping the tortillas with a little dressing, then a little fish, and then the cabbage mix. Gently fold the tortilla in half; then eat and enjoy.
