Before You Start
Heat the oven to 400°F, shred the cabbage, slice the zucchini, slice the avocado, and cut the lime so you can build fast once the fish is out.
How To Make It
- Set the oven to 400°F and line a tray with parchment.
- Lay the cod on the tray, season with a pinch of salt and half the lime, and roast 12 to 15 minutes, until it flakes easily and reaches 145°F in the thickest part.
- While the fish roasts, warm the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the cabbage and zucchini, 6 to 7 minutes, until softened and lightly charred at the edges.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry pan, about 20 seconds a side, until soft and pliable so they fold without cracking.
- Flake the cod into the tortillas, pile on the warm cabbage and zucchini and the avocado, finish with the rest of the lime, and serve.
Fix It: If the tortillas crack when you fold them they are too cold, so give them ten more seconds in the warm pan to bend instead of break.
Air Fryer
- Heat the air fryer to 380F.
- Add the ingredients you would cook on the stove or in the oven in a single layer, without crowding the basket.
- Cook for about 18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway, until cooked through and lightly crisp.
- Let it rest a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
