The Best Fish Tacos Recipe With Wasabi Slaw

April 20, 2017 Amy 13 Comments

I am delighted CFE Saltfish has sponsored the Buena Ventura Salted Pollock Fillets wild caught fish used in this original best fish tacos recipe created by me. All opinions expressed in this post are my own.

When spring hits and it is getting warmer outside, light and fresh meals are what people are looking forward to having. With using fresh ingredients and delicious fish, eating fish tacos tastes just like spring. The Buena Ventura Salted Pollock Fillets are an excellent wild caught fish to use for this fish tacos recipe. You can find this frozen fish in Kroger stores. The reason I love this recipe so much, is my husband makes the fish while we prepare all the other sides as a family.

How to Make the Best Fish Tacos Recipe

The Best fish tacos recipe Ever

To start this recipe follow the directions for the salted pollock located on the bag. Buena Ventura Salted Pollock Fillets can be found in Brookshire Brothers, HEB, Fiesta, Food Town, H Mart, Kroger, and Los Altos Ranch Market. Rinse off salt from the salted pollock fillets and let soak in water for at least 8 hours. After it is defrosted, cut into bite sized pieces.

Then dry the pollock a paper towel while the batter is prepared.

Mix all the dry ingredients listed above in a large bowl to prepare the batter. In a separate dish beat two eggs. First dredge the fish in the eggs then in the dry mixture before frying.

Next fry the fish in oil at 350° until light and crispy.

Prepare the slaw by thinly slicing purple cabbage and the green cabbage until there is about 1 cup each. Then chop the cilantro and grate the carrot. Mix all together to make a slaw. This makes extra to eat on the side.

Next prepare the wasabi garlic lime sauce. Simply measure out all the ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Add two tablespoons to the slaw and mix together.

Build the fish taco with a soft warm flour tortilla with a layer slaw add four to five pieces of fish. Add a little more slaw to the top. Top off with an extra drizzle of the wasabi garlic and lime sauce. Add a squeeze of lime and enjoy.
