Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the fish fillets dry and cut into 2-inch wide strips.

    Set up a breading station: Place flour in one bowl, beat eggs in a second bowl, and combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a third bowl.

  3. 3

    Dip each fish strip in flour, then egg, then breadcrumb mixture. Press to adhere well.

  5. 5

    In a medium bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, cabbage, basil, and red onion. Toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, red wine vinegar, half the lemon zest, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced garlic, remaining lemon zest, and 1 tbsp lemon juice to make the aioli.

  7. 7

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.

    To serve, layer fish in tortillas, top with tomato basil slaw, and drizzle with lemon garlic aioli.
