Ingredients

  • 1 pound Alaskan Cod
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • ½ teaspoon old bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoon black Pepper
  • 3-4 teaspoons olive oil

Toppings

  • 1 tomato diced
  • 1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
  • 1 Tablespoon lime juice
  • Limes for serving (optional)
  • Avocado (optional)
  • cilantro (optional)

Sauce Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayo
  • juice of one lime
  • 2 Garlic cloves grated or minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon chili garlic paste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and prep a baking sheet with parchment
    paper and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine cumin, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and old bay. Drizzle
    your fish with olive oil and sprinkle seasoning on both sides of your fish; gently rub in the oil and spices. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • While the fish is baking, prep your toppings and tortillas. Heat your tortillas on
    a skillet with olive oil, 2-3 minutes on each side on medium-high heat.
  • Thinly shred or slice your cabbage and place it in a small bowl, combining it with lime juice.
  • To make your sauce combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl, and place in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
  • Once the fish is done, flake with a fork into smaller pieces. Place a few pieces
    on a tortilla, top with cabbage, red onion, tomato, cilantro, and sauce.

Notes

When done, the fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork. If you have an instant-read thermometer, it should register 145°F in the thickest part of the fillet.
Store any leftover fish, toppings, and sauce separately in airtight containers in the fridge. The fish and sauce will keep for up to 3 days.
