Ingredients
- 4-6 oz boneless, skinless fish fillets cod, tilapia, or salmon work great
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 3/4 tsp Tajín Seasoning
Fish Taco Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp sriracha sauce adjust to your spice level
- 1-2 tbsp water to adjust sauce consistency
For Serving
- 8 low-carb tortillas small
- 1 cup shredded red cabbage
- 1 cup shredded white cabbage
- lime wedges
- avocado slices
- fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. Rub them with olive oil, then season with smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
- Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (390°F). Place the fillets in the basket and cook for 10 minutes or until the fish is flaky and cooked through. Once done, use a fork to flake the fish into bite-sized pieces. If you don’t have an air fryer, you can pan-fry the fish over medium-high heat for about 3–4 minutes per side.
- Make the Sauce - In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, and sriracha. Add 1–2 tablespoons of water to thin the sauce to your desired consistency—it should be drizzle-ready but not too runny.
- Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Warm each tortilla for about 30 seconds per side until pliable. For crispy taco shells, immediately fold each tortilla in half while warm and press gently with a spatula, or use a taco rack to hold the shape.
- Spread a generous layer of the sauce on each tortilla. Top with a mix of red and white cabbage, flaked fish, and your favorite garnishes—lime wedges, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.
