Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• vegetable oil for frying
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 1 tomato, diced
• 2 limes, cut into wedges
• 2 cups panko bread crumbs
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 2 teaspoons taco seasoning mix
• 1 (10 ounce) package corn tortillas
• 6 cod fillets, quartered lengthwise
• 0.25 cup milk
• 0.5 onion, diced
• 0.5 head napa cabbage, shredded

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Beat eggs, milk, and taco seasoning together in a bowl using a whisk or a fork. Place panko bread crumbs in a separate bowl.

Step 3

Coat each piece of cod in egg batter, followed by bread crumbs.

Step 4

Place cod in hot oil and fry until golden brown and flaky, flipping halfway through if using a saucepan, 4 to 8 minutes, depending on size and fry method. Transfer to a platter covered with paper towels to drain. Keep warm.

Step 5

Warm tortillas in a microwave oven, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Step 6

Divide fish evenly between tortillas. Top tacos evenly with sour cream; squeeze lime juice over each. Top each with cabbage, tomato, onion, bell pepper, and avocado, in that order. Squeeze additional lime juice over each taco and serve.
