What you’ll need…
For the Fish
4 tilapia filets
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup cornstarch
Oil for frying
For the Slaw
2 cups green cabbage, shredded
2 cups purple cabbage, shredded
2 tablespoons honey
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and pepper
For the Bang Bang Sauce
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sriracha
1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Make the slaw: In a large bowl, toss cabbage, honey, and lime juice together until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Make the Bang Bang sauce: In a separate small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha, sweet chili sauce, and honey. Set aside.
Prepare the tilapia: Pat dry the tilapia. Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large pan. While the oil is heating, toss tilapia with buttermilk before transferring to cornstarch. Toss until evenly combined.
Cook the tilapia: Cook fish on medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side. Transfer the tilapia to a plate lined with paper towel to soak any excess oil.
Assemble the tacos: For each taco, layer about half a piece of tilapia over a flour tortilla on top of prepared slaw. Serve with Bang Bang sauce and serve immediately.
Enjoy!
