Steps:
- Cut each fish filet into slices. The slices can be up to an inch thick and roughly the size of a tortilla (3-4 inches long).
- Pat the fish filets dry with a paper towel and sprinkle them with 1/4 tsp. kosher salt and pepper. (It's important that the fish is not too damp or it will steam in the pan and become rubbery instead of flaky).
- To make the coating simply combine 1 cup gluten free flour blend (or AP flour), 2 tsp. cumin, 2 tsp. chili powder, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder , and 1/2 tsp. each of kosher salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir until completely combined.
- Place the pieces of fish onto a large plate, platter, or bowl and pour some of the flour mixture over the top. Flip each of the fish filets over a few times until each piece is completely coated in the flour mixture. Shake each piece of fish to remove any excess flour and repeat until all the fish is coated.
- Heat the skillet to slightly hotter than medium and add 2 Tbsp. of oil. Make sure the oil is thoroughly heated before adding the fish to the skillet (the fish should sizzle once it hits the pan).
- Fry the fish for 4-5 minutes on the first side. Do not move the fish around much or the coating will not stick. Once the first side has developed a golden brown coating flip it over and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side.
- Once each side has developed a golden brown coating remove the fish from the skillet and place it on a plate or paper towel. Add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Repeat with the second batch of fish, adding more oil to the pan so that it doesn't stick to the bottom. Repeat the process until all of the fish is cooked.
- Place ¾ cup sour cream, ¼ cup mayo, 2 cloves garlic, 1-2 jalapenos (remove seeds and membranes), the juice of 1 large lime (or 2 small limes), ½ tsp. kosher salt and pepper, and 1 cup fresh cilantro in a food processor or blender. Pulse until the dressing is completely combined.
- Chop 8 cups of fresh cabbage (red or green) and place it in a large bowl. You can also use a bag of shredded cabbage to save time if you like.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage and toss until completely combined. The coleslaw may be prepare 1-2 hours or even the day ahead and stored in the fridge until ready to serve. Alternately, you can make it right before serving.
- To Serve: Place the pan fried fish on a couple of warmed corn tortillas. Pile a generous amount of spicy coleslaw on top. Additional toppings may be added if desired.

CILANTRO LIME FISH
This is a good one for those of us who love lime, since that is the predominant flavor here. Use cod, flounder, or any firm white fish for this. I used Tilapia, and in place of the dried onion I used fresh. I served it with Recipe #120719. From Taste of Home's Quick Cooking (September/October 1999).

FISH TACOS WITH CILANTRO CHIPOTLE SLAW
I love fish tacos, and since my family has been trying to eat a little healthier, this seemed like a good way to get some fish into our diet without all the extra garbage that usually goes along with eating fish here in the south (fish fries and the like). The Marinade is basically the same as my recipe# 241864 but with some proportions scaled back.I used halibut, but any firm white fish will do. I think next time, I'm going to try Gulf Red Snapper. I also pan seared the fish since I live in a high rise apartment and can't grill, but if you want to grill the fish, I'm sure it will be even better. The slaw is kind of like combining the traditional cabbage topping and the cilantro and creme all into one easy and tasty scoop.

Steps:
- Mix the marinade ingredients together in a blender. Except the fish, as we're not making cat food.
- Pour the marinade into a big zip top bag with the fish and let it sit for about 30 minutes at the most.
- In a food processor, combine all of the slaw ingredients except the cabbage. Spin it up until you have a smoothish dressing.
- Pour the slaw dressing over the cabbage and toss to combine. Let it chill in the fridge until dinner is ready. Normally I would make any coleslaw a day ahead of time, but for this, I still want a good crunch to the cabbage.
- Mix the Masa, the salt and 1 cup of the water in a bowl by hand.
- Only add enough of the remaining water tot he dough so it is workable enough to form a golf ball sized ball that can be flattened out without it crumbling apart.
- Divide the dough into 16 equally sized balls.
- Break out your tortilla press and flatten each dough ball into a small round. Or if you're like me, break out the tortilla press, then break the press after the third tortilla and resort to parchment paper, a heavy pan with a smooth bottom and a rolling pin.
- Cook the tortillas on a med-high hot dry pan or an electric griddle for about 1 minute per side. You'll have to eyeball the time depending on how hot your "med-high" is.
- I followed Alton Browns tip on keeping my tortillas hot and ready by wrapping them in a tea towel sitting on a heating pad. Yes, I am that much of a geek that I have a heating pad in the kitchen.
- Get a large non stick pan heated over medium ready with half the oil.
- Place your fish in the pan, careful not to crowd the pan, and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side. This is really up to you and how "done" you like your fish and also the type and thickness of the fish you're cooking. I look for just opaque in the center.
- Extract the first batch and cover with foil while the second batch cooks.
- I like the two tortilla shingle method myself with the fish on the bottom and the slaw on top. You can throw some diced tomatoes on top or maybe a squeeze of lime if you think it's necessary. I like to keep it simple.
