Ingredients
1 lb fish, cut into bite sized pieces
2 tsp blackening seasoning
Oil, for the skillet (as needed, start with 2 tsp)
3 TBS mayo
2 tsp pineapple juice, from the can
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Pinch of salt
1 ¼ cups sliced red cabbage or tri color coleslaw mix
½ cup finely diced pineapple (from a can)
2 TBS minced cilantro or parsley
8 small flour tortillas
Instructions
Toss fish with the blackening seasoning in a bowl. Heat the oil in a skillet until hot. Add a piece of fish, it should sizzle loudly on contact (if not wait a little longer). Add all the fish and cook until opaque and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, mix together the mayo, pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Stir in the cabbage, pineapple and cilantro or parsley.
Divide the slaw up among the tortillas. Top with the blackened fish. Serve immediately.
