Chipotle Yogurt Sauce:
- ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp. paprika
- 1 tsp. chilli powder
- 2 tbsp. lime juice
- 1 tsp. honey
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the panko breadcrumbs, and spices together in a shallow baking dish.
- Place the egg into a separate shallow dish and beat well.
- Now take the fillets of fish and place them one at a time, first into the egg wash and then into the panko mixture. Cover the fish in the breadcrumbs.
- Once all fish have been coated in the panko, place them in a preheated non-stick pan that has been sprayed with oil.
- Place 2 fish fillets at a time into the pan and sear each side for 1 minute and remove from the pan. Re-spray the pan with oil and repeat for the next 2 fillets. Place the seared fish onto a baking sheet and place in the the oven for 8 minutes.Â
- While the fish is cooking, shred the cabbage (use green or purple cabbage, or a combination of both). For ease, use a food processor with appropriate cutting blade, alternatively thinly slice with a knife. Place the cabbage into a bowl and add in 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and a small pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
- With 3 minutes left on the cooking time for the fish, wrap the soft taco shells in foil and place in the oven to warm up.Â
- To make the yogurt dip, place the yogurt into a small bowl and add in the lime juice, chili powder, honey, paprika and mix well.
- The fish is cooked when it is flaky but not dry on the inside, the internal temperature should be 145°F (63°C).Â
- To assemble the tacos take a taco shell and fill with a few small pieces of fish, top with cabbage slaw, and chipotle sauce.
Tip: Other topping options are sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and feta cheese. Note: Makes 16 tacos & nutrition for 2 tacos.
