Servings: persons

3 cups panko breadcrumbs
4 eggs
3 lbs halibut (you can use another firm white fish, but I prefer halibut)
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon pepper (fresh ground)
1 tablespoon dried chipotle powder
12 white corn tortillas
4 cups napa cabbage, shredded
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
2 chipotle peppers, canned in adobo sauce
2 tablespoons adobo sauce (from canned chipotle peppers)
2 tablespoons lime juice (fresh squeezed)
12 lime wedges (for garnish)
peanut oil, for frying fish

1
To make the sauce:.
2
Put mayonnaise, sour cream, peppers, and lime juice in a blender and process to a puree. Add salt & pepper to taste. Place in a bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour. After chilled test for seasoning. Add salt & pepper if needed.
3
To make the fish:.
4
Heat a heavy pan about 1/4 full of peanut oil to approximately 375 degrees. Place Panko crumbs, salt, pepper, and chipotle powder in a shallow bowl. Wisk eggs into another shallow bowl with some salt & pepper. Slice fish into taco size pieces, about 1 inch wide by 3-4 inches long. Dip fish into the egg wash and coat with panko crumbs. Make sure that the fish is well coated but not over coated (shake well). Let rest for a 2-3 minutes before cooking.
5
Cook the fish in the hot oil in small batches. This will keep the temperature high so you can cook the fish fast. Cook the fish for about 4-5 minutes until golden browned and crispy. Once cooked, place on paper towels and pat dry to drain any residual oil.
6
Steam corn tortillas according to package instructions. You can also heat them on the stove.
7
Serve tacos by placing some sauce in the bottom of a tortilla, add fish, and the cabbage. Garnish with a fresh lime wedge. I also like to add some fresh fruit salsa, like my Pineapple salsa with this recipe.
