Ingredients
- 12 ounces cod, cut into ½-inch, 1-ounce strips
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- Juice of ½ lime, plus lime wedges, for serving
- ½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Olive oil, for spraying
- 6 corn tortillas
- Shredded cabbage, for serving
- Cilantro, roughly chopped, for serving
- Sliced avocado, for serving
- Crema or sour cream, for serving
Preparation
- Season the cod with ½ teaspoon of the salt and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Set up 3 shallow containers for dredging: one with the flour, one with the egg, and the third with the panko and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Dip the cod first into the flour, shaking off any excess. Next dip in the egg, and then coat well with the panko.
- Place the cod in one layer in the air fryer Spray both sides with olive oil.
- Place the basket in the air fryer. Select Air Fry, and set the time to 9 minutes and the temperature to 400°F. Select Toss Reminder and press Start/Stop. When alerted, flip the cod, and then reinsert the basket to continue cooking. Air fry until browned and crispy. Transfer the cooked fish to a plate and reserve.
- Add the tortillas to the basket. Place the basket in the air fryer. Select Bake, and set the time to 2 minutes and the temperature to 300°F. Heat until soft and pliable. Serve tacos each with 1 tortilla and 2 pieces of fish. Garnish as desired with shredded cabbage, cilantro, avocado, crema, and fresh lime wedges on the side.
