Fish Taco's

You will need the following ingredients for the Fish:
1-2 Talapia fillets per person .... halved with the dark center removed...rinsed and dried
2 Tbsp. Cumin powder
1 Tbsp. garlic powder
1 Tsp. Chile powder (mild or hot) depending on your families love for spicy food
Zest of 1 lime

For the Fish coating:
GF finely ground bread crumbs...add the spices and mix well

1 Egg in a baking dish to dip fish fillets into prior to coating with the bread crumb and spice mixture

Canola oil very light coat in the bottom of a cast iron skillet or stainless steel skillet...Med. low heat until the oil reaches a fairly hot temperature..it will cool a bit after you add the fish but you want the fish to cook high enough to create a nice crisp exterior; but not so high as to burn the coating...about 2 min. each side

Taco shells..a few per person if not allergic to corn
Rice Burrito shells baked in the oven until golden brown if you are allergic to corn

Finely sliced lettuce...rinsed and spun dry

Tofutti Better than Sour Cream...diced tomatoes and sliced olives to add to your taco or taco salad..

Top with:
1 C mayonnaise mixed with 1/4 C lime juice; 1tsp. cumin, garlic powder and chili powder, 1/2 tsp. ground oregano...thin with soy milk or almond milk to a consistency that is thin but not runny.

First make the topping and bread crumb mix; clean/dry and slice lettuce and all vegetables; make topping and rice burritos if needed; get egg ready; clean/dry all fish fillets

Keep oven at a low temp. to place finished fillets in on a cooling rack over the top of a baking sheet so they will stay crisp until all fish is cooked...

have everyone fix their own taco or taco salad...a really tasty and fun meal
