Ingredients
Scale
1 lb White Fish (Cod, Halibut, or Tilapia)
8 units Corn Tortillas (GF)
1 cup Almond Flour (or GF Breadcrumbs)
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
1 tsp Cumi
1 tsp Garlic Powder
2 large Eggs (or Flax Egg for Vegan)
2 cups Shredded Purple Cabbage
2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
1 large Ripe Avocado
1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro
Avocado Oil Spray (As needed)
Instructions
- Prepare the Fish: Pat the fish fillets very dry with paper towels, cut them into 1-inch bite-sized pieces
- Set Up the Breading Station: In one shallow bowl, whisk your eggs. In a second bowl, combine almond flour, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper
- Coat the Fish: Dip each piece of fish into the egg wash, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture
- Air Fry the Fish: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly spray the basket with avocado oil and arrange the fish in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through
- Crisp the Tortillas: Place corn tortillas in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes until they are stiff and toasted
- Assemble: Spread a layer of mashed avocado on the toasted tortilla. Top with lime-dressed cabbage slaw and crispy fish
Notes
For best results, do not overcrowd the air fryer basket.
Let cabbage sit in lime juice for at least 10 minutes before serving.
