Fish taco sauce: In a small bowl, add yogurt, mayo, lime juice, taco seasoning, cayenne and black pepper. Stir and set aside.

Toppings: Chop and prepare the toppings.

To cook fish: Preheat large ceramic non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and swirl 1 tbsp of oil. In batches, dredge pieces of fish in flour mixture and fry for 2-3 minutes per side or until crispy and brown. Fish cooks fast, so don&#039;t over cook. Do not overcrowd the skillet - helps to keep fish crispy. Remove onto a plate.

To assemble tacos: Warm tortillas in a cast iron skillet on high heat for 10 seconds per side and pressing on with spatula. Fill each tortilla with 3-4 pieces of fish, add toppings and drizzle with sauce. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings (please see suggestions in notes).

lbs fish

tsp sea salt

tsp ground pepper

tbsp grass-fed butter ((or sub ghee or coconut oil))

cabbage, shredded

kale, chopped

lime, juice of

avocados, cubed

salt and pepper,

fresh cilantro, chopped

white rice ((optional))

Place all of the seasonings for the fish tacos in a small bowl and mix until they are evenly combined.

Place fish in a glass dish, and add the seasoning mix. Work the seasoning into the fish with your hands. Cover and place in the fridge. Let fish marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to 24 hours.

Make the slaw by placing cabbage, kale, lime juice, avocado, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl and mix them up until the avocado gets a little broken down but stays mostly chunky. Set aside till you're ready to plate.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and let your butter, ghee or coconut oil heat up and melt in the pan. Transfer your fish to the heated skillet. Let the fish get to sizzling. Cook for 2-4 minutes.

Flip and cook for another 2-4 minutes. Turn your burner off once the fish is done. It will be flaky and you can break it up into smaller pieces in the pan.&nbsp;

Make your bowls. Start with the slaw in the bottom of your bowls, add optional rice and top with fish. Garnish with salsa and fresh cilantro. &nbsp;
