  • 1 French shallot, finely chopped
  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) red wine vinegar
  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) olive oil
  • 125 ml (½ cup) fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 600 gr (1.30 lb) cod, haddock, or walleye fillets
  • 125 ml (½ cup) flour
  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) Tex-Mex spice blend
  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) vegetable oil
  • 8 small 6-inch (15 cm) tortillas

  • 180 ml (¾ cup) feta, crumbled
  • 125 ml (½ cup) crispy fried onions

Preparation

  1. In a bowl, combine the strawberries, jalapeño, shallot, red wine vinegar, olive oil, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Pat the fish fillets dry and cut them into portions that fit the tortillas.
  3. On a plate, mix together the flour, Tex-Mex spices, salt, and pepper.
  4. Coat the fish in the flour mixture and shake off any excess.
  5. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the vegetable oil and cook the fish in a little vegetable oil for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, depending on its thickness, until it’s nicely browned and just cooked through. The fish can also be grilled for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  6. In a hot skillet or directly on the grill, quickly toast the tortillas.
  7. Spread a line of mayonnaise on each tortilla, then top with the fish, strawberry salsa, crumbled feta, and crispy fried onions.
  8. Serve immediately with lime wedges.
