Ingredients

  • 4 frozen battered fish fillets
  • 2 tortillas or 4 street taco sized tortillas
  • 1/4 cup cotija cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
  • Optional: 2 ounces of sour cream or fiesta yogurt recipe in notes, tomatoes, avocados

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F for 2 minutes.
  • Spray the bucket or rack with oil, then place the frozen battered fish fillets in the air fryer.
  • Cook for 7 minutes, then flip and cook an additional 5-6 minutes. When flaky, cooked all the way through, and crispy on the outside, remove from air fryer.
  • When the fish is cooked, place two fillets in each tortilla (or one in each street taco tortilla), then top with shredded red cabbage and cotija. Garnish with sour cream, fiesta yogurt, avocado, or tomatoes.

Notes

I used Gorton's Crispy Battered Fish Fillets; each fillet is about 2 ounces each.
Fiesta Yogurt: Mix 16 ounces of plain, unsweetened yogurt with one packet of Hidden Valley Ranch fiesta dip mix. Add juice from one lime, then stir and add water until it reaches a drizzly consistency.
