  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin

  • Soft-shell tortillas

Directions

  1. Add the coleslaw mix to a mixing bowl with the sliced jalapeno, mayo, lime juice and salt u0026 pepper. Toss to combine and set aside while your prepare your fish
  2. Cut the fish into 1u0022 pieces and it them to a bowl with the spices and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Toss together until each piece is evenly coated
  3. Heat a large pan on medium heat then add in another tbsp of olive oil.
  4. Add the seasoned fish to the pan and cook each side for 1-2 minutes until brown. You may need to cook it in two batches depending on your pan size
  5. Once the fish is done, remove it from the pan and squeeze lime juice over the top
  6. In the same pan, add a little extra olive oil with the corn, chili powder and salt. Cook the corn on medium/high heat for about 5 minutes.
  7. Once your fillings are all prepared, layer them all on your favorite tortillas and add sliced avocado, pickled red onions, hot sauce and cilantro. I like to char my tortillas on the fire before assembling for best flavor.
  8. Leftovers will stay fresh in the fridge for 3-4 days.
