2 fish fillets (any kind you prefer, I like Tilapia)
1/3 cup Panko bread crumbs
2 eggs
corn tortillas*
enough oil to fry the tortillas (2-3 cups, depending on your pan size)
1/3 cup mayo
1/3 cup sour cream (or greek yogurt) plus more for serving
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
3 garlic cloves
1/2 head purple cabbage
1/4 cup cilantro
For the slaw slice up the cabbage into fine shreds. Mince the garlic. In a small bowl whisk together the mayo, sour cream, vinegar and sugar. Add a little salt and pepper to season. In a gallon size zip lock bag (or large mixing bowl) combine the mayo dressing with the cabbage and garlic, mix well. Store until you are ready to garnish the tacos.
For the fish whisk together the eggs and pour onto a plate with a lip (so the egg doesn't spill over). Dip the fish fillets in the egg, coating both sides then coat in Panko bread crumbs. Season with a little salt and pepper. Lay the fillets in a buttered baking dish and bake at 375°F until cooked through. Remove from oven and cut into bite size pieces, trying not to disturb the bread crumbs as you do. *You may be able to find mini corn tortillas. If you cannot find any in your area simply buy regular size corn tortillas and use a round cookie cutter to cut them into the size you need. Fry in enough oil so they can float for a few minutes on each side, so that they become crispy (like a tortillas chip).

Girl, these look bomb. I see those caprese skewers in the background too. I can’t wait to make me some of those. I love the serving tray you have the tacos on – so pretty, bright and fun.
I just wanna have backyard BBQ parties everydayyyyy. Now I just need a yard.. One day..
Funny story – my good friends/neighbours (a house of 5 guys) had an impromptu BBQ party at their place. I ended up bringing pitchers of sangria, a 5 layer dip, a polka dotted serving tray, mason jar cups, paper straws and some other cute things (napkins, etc). I don’t think their house ever looked so cute 😛 Don’t know if they appreciated it, but the ladies attending sure did.. haha.

Delicious idea!
Even more simple would be to use actual tortilla chips for these. Granted it wouldn’t be quite as tasty, but would come together much more quickly.
These looks scrumptious. How do people fathom these creative food ideas. I struggle. haha. Yummmm
