Fish Tacos with Avocado Salsa

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 lb cod, cut into 16 strips
  • 2 tbsp canola oil
  • 8 six-inch corn tortillas
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 cup tomato, chopped
  • 1/4 cup white onion, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • Squeeze of fresh lime juice

Directions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees.
  2. Place the all-purpose flour, egg, and panko breadcrumbs into 3 separate shallow bowls, then season each with 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
  3. Dredge the fish strips in the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumbs.
  4. Spray the fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray, then drizzle 4 fish strips with 1 tablespoon of canola oil, place in the basket, and cook for 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the strips from the basket and place on a wire rack. Repeat this process with the remaining fish strips.
  6. While the fish strips cook, make the salsa in a medium bowl by mashing together the avocado, tomato, onion, kosher salt, and lime juice. Set aside.
  7. Remove the fish from the fryer and place 2 strips in each corn tortilla, then add 1/4 cup of avocado salsa. (You can also use other toppings, like shredded lettuce or hot sauce.) Serve warm.
