Fish, you say? Yes! Tillapia is a wonderful "non-fishy" fish with an almost fruity, fresh flavor, and it makes fantastic fish tacos! And they are not heavy deep-fat-fried, but still have a yummy crispy coating.
Fantastic Fish Tacos (serves 4 people, or 8 tacos)
by Erin Taylor
4 large Tillapia filets, halved lengthwise
8 corn tortillas
1 small bag coleslaw mix
1/2 C. Sour cream (lowfat works great!)mixed with 1 tsp. garlic powder and 1 tsp. chili powder. (or, just use plain sour cream, tastes great too!)
salsa
lime juice
Cilantro leaves
Heat large skillet with a little canola oil. Lightly dust tillapia on each side with flour. Salt each side and place in hot skillet. Brown on each side until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes each. (Do not over cook! Fish cooks very quickly!) Place on paper towel.
Dollop a small amount (about 1 tsp.) of sour cream mixture into center of tortilla and spread into a strip across the middle. Place one piece of fish in center. Squirt a little lime juice over fish. Cover with cole slaw mix and salsa. Squirt a little more lime juice on top, garnish with some cilantro leaves and serve! (2 tacos per person)
