Baja Fish Tacos



 
From Every Day with Rachael Ray
February 2007

FOUR SERVINGS
Prep Time: 30 min
Cook Time: 20 min





2 cups shredded red cabbage 1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons red salsa Salt 1/3 cup sour cream 2 cups cornmeal 3 large eggs 1 pound cod, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices Vegetable oil, for frying Eight 6-inch soft corn tortillas



1. In a medium bowl, toss the cabbage, cilantro, 1/4 cup salsa and salt to taste. In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream and remaining 3 tablespoons salsa. Set both aside.
2. In a shallow dish, whisk together the cornmeal and 1 tablespoon salt. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs with a fork. Coat the fish slices in the cornmeal, then in the egg, then in the cornmeal again, and place on a plate.
3. In a medium cast-iron or other heavy skillet, pour the oil to a depth of 1 1/2 inches and heat over medium heat until the surface ripples, about 2 minutes. Add about a third of the fish slices to the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining fish slices.
4. In a large skillet, warm the tortillas on both sides over high heat. Spread about 1 teaspoon sour cream sauce on a tortilla, then top with a few pieces fish and heaping spoonful of the slaw and fold over. Repeat with the remaining tacos.
