Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Cod Tacos.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a casserole dish and gently lay your cod fillets inside.
Step 3
Drizzle them with a splash of olive oil and a tablespoon of fresh lime juice, letting the flavors mingle.
Step 4
Sprinkle on some cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, half a teaspoon of salt, and a dash of black pepper to season the fish beautifully.
Step 5
Once your oven is ready, pop the dish inside and let the cod bake for about 20 minutes, or until it flakes effortlessly with a fork.
Step 6
When it’s done, use two forks to flake the fish right in the baking dish, making it easy to scoop up later.
Step 7
While the cod is baking, let’s whip up a creamy, zesty crema.
Step 8
In a bowl, combine some sour cream with minced garlic, lime zest, a quarter teaspoon of lime juice, and a pinch of salt.
Step 9
Mix it all together until it’s smooth and delicious.
Step 10
Next, prepare a refreshing cabbage slaw by tossing shredded cabbage with a quarter teaspoon of lime juice and a splash of white vinegar.
Step 11
This will add a nice crunch to your tacos.
Step 12
Now, it’s time to warm up those flour tortillas! Place them in the microwave for about 30 to 45 seconds, covering them with a damp paper towel to keep them soft and pliable.
Step 13
When everything is ready, it’s taco assembly time! Take a warm tortilla and layer it with the flaky baked cod, a generous scoop of cabbage slaw, a drizzle of your creamy crema, and diced tomatoes if you like a little extra freshness.
Step 14
Serve your tacos hot, and get ready to enjoy a delightful meal that’s bursting with flavor!.
