Ingredients
- 1 lb white fish fillets (like cod or tilapia)

- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
Method

- In a bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and salt. Dip fish fillets in the mixture until well-coated.
- Place the coated fish fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Spray lightly with oil and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- While the fish cooks, combine Greek yogurt, lime juice, and cabbage in a separate bowl to make the cilantro lime slaw.
- Once the fish is crispy, assemble the tacos by placing fish in corn tortillas and topping with cilantro lime slaw.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious air fryer fish tacos!
Pro tips for maximum crisp
- For extra crispiness, let the coated fish rest for 5 minutes before air frying.
- Store leftover fish in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer to maintain crispiness.
- Try adding avocado or fresh salsa as additional toppings for a flavor boost!
