Best Tilapia And Shrimp Tacos With Cabbage Slaw Recipes

SHRIMP TACOS

Steps:

• For the slaw: Combine the sliced jalapeno and shredded green and purple cabbage in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, cayenne and salt. Pour the milk mixture over the cabbage and jalapeno and toss to combine. (Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours if you have the time.) Before serving, toss in the cilantro.
• For the shrimp: Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over high heat. Throw in the shrimp and cook, tossing it around, until opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the tomato or enchilada sauce, stirring to combine. Stir in the cumin and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Add the butter, then remove from the heat.
• Serve the warm tortillas with the shrimp, slaw, pico de gallo, avocado slices, sour cream and pepper jack cheese, then let everyone build their own tacos. Be sure to squeeze the lime wedges over the top at the end!

• While oil is heating, clean and dry tilapia and cut into 2-inch pieces. Dredge in flour, then egg, then panko mixture.

• Fill tortillas with fish. Top with slaw, mayonnaise sauce, and radishes. Serve with lime wedges.

• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Place the fish on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush the fish with the olive oil.
• Mix together the garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
• Sprinkle the fish with the seasoning.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the fish is opaque and flaky.
• Gather the ingredients.
• Mix all of the Baja sauce ingredients together in a bowl. Whisk until completely combined. Set aside.
• Gather the ingredients.
• Toss together all of the ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Taste and add more salt, if needed.

CRISPY TILAPIA FISH TACOS WITH SLAW

Steps:

• Mix mayonnaise, onion, pickles, and lemon juice for tartar sauce in a bowl until well combined. Refrigerate until needed.
• Combine cabbage, carrots, green onions, and cilantro in a bowl. Mix garlic and ginger with rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil in a small bowl; pour over slaw and toss to coat. Refrigerate until needed.
• Heat 1 1/2 inches oil in a deep pot over medium heat.
• While oil is heating, mix flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Slowly add ginger ale and mix to combine. You don't want the batter to be overly thick; excess batter should be able to coat the fish entirely, but still be able to drip off.
• Pat tilapia chunks dry and dredge in the batter until thoroughly coated.
• Test the oil by adding a few drops of batter in it; when the batter begins to bubble and float, the oil is ready. Working in batches so you don't overcrowd the pot, carefully lower some tilapia into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining tilapia.
• To serve, place slaw on warm tortillas. Top with tilapia and tartar sauce.
