For the fish:

12 ounces boneless, skinless white fish fillets such as cod, halibut, branzino

1 teaspoon salt, divided

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

1 large egg, beaten

1/2 cup panko crumbs

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon oregano

olive oil spray

 

For the tacos:

1 tomato, diced

1/4 cup diced red onion

3 cups chopped white cabbage

fresh dill, for topping

8 small flour tortillas, warmed (such as mission street taco flour tortillas)

8 lemon wedges, for serving

 

Mint Tzatziki sauce:

3/4 cup Stonyfield Plain 0% Fat Greek Yogurt

1/3 cup grated cucumber, seeds and skin removed (from 1 medium)

1 small clove garlic, crushed

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped

1/2 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

1/4 + 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

fresh black pepper, to taste

 

Instructions

Place cucumber in a mini food processor or grate with a box cheese grater. Drain the liquid from the cucumber in a metal strainer and use the back of a spoon to help squeeze out any excess liquid.

Combine with the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, mint, dill, salt, pepper and refrigerate until read to eat.

Season fish with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut into 8 strips.

Place flour on a plate and egg in a shallow bowl. On another plate, combine panko with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, garlic powder and oregano.

 

Air Fryer Method:

Preheat the air fryer to 400F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to the basket and cook in a single layer 4 minutes, turn and cook 2 to 3 more minutes, until golden and crisp.

 

Oven Method:

Preheat the oven to 425F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to a baking sheet and cook in a single layer 5 to 6 minutes, turn and cook 5 to 6 more minutes, until golden and crisp.

To serve, place 1/4 cup cabbage over each tortilla, top with a piece of fish, tzatziki, tomatoes, red onion and squeeze fresh lemon juice over everything.
