Tzatziki Sauce Preparation

  • Place cucumber in a mini food processor or grate with a box cheese grater. Drain the liquid from the cucumber in a metal strainer and use the back of a spoon to help squeeze out any excess liquid.

  • Place flour on a plate and egg in a shallow bowl. On another plate, combine panko with remaining ½ teaspoon salt, garlic powder and oregano.

Cooking Methods

  • Air Fryer Method: Preheat the air fryer to 400F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to the basket and cook in a single layer 4 minutes, turn and cook 2 to 3 more minutes, until golden and crisp.
  • Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 425F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to a baking sheet and cook in a single layer 5 to 6 minutes, turn and cook 5 to 6 more minutes, until golden and crisp.

Serving

  • To serve, place ¼ cup cabbage over each tortilla, top with a piece of fish, tzatziki, tomatoes, red onion and squeeze fresh lemon juice over everything.
