Ling Cod Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place cod fillets in a casserole dish and drizzle with olive oil and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Season with cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and break apart the fish in the baking dish with 2 forks.
• Meanwhile, combine sour cream, garlic, lime zest, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and a pinch of salt for crema in a bowl. Combine cabbage, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and vinegar for cabbage slaw in another bowl.
• Warm tortillas in the microwave on default mode with a dampened paper towel draped over, 30 to 45 seconds.
• Assemble tacos by layering each tortilla with cod, cabbage slaw, crema, and tomato. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Dust fish pieces with seasoned flour. Mix together flour, water, egg and baking soda. The batter should be the consistency of heavy cream. A few lumps are okay.
• Heat oil to a depth of two inches in a deep pot to 375 degrees. Dip fish into batter and lower into oil, a few pieces at a time, and fry until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
• Steam tortillas (see potato tacos). Use two tortillas for each taco, laying one tortilla on another (to insure sturdiness), and fill with 1 to 2 pieces of fish, cabbage, tomato, onion, cilantro and crema or sour cream. For Ensenada-style taco, thin the mayonnaise with 2 1/2 tablespoons of water and spread on tortillas. Fill as above and top with guacamole. Serve both taco varieties with lime wedges and salsa.
