How to Make Fish Tacos With Yogurt Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, sour cream, red pepper flakes, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Place the cornstarch, salt, and pepper on a large, flat plate.
  3. Dredge the fish pieces in the cornstarch mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Gently shake off any excess cornstarch from the fish.
  6. Add the fish to the hot skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Remove the fish from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. Warm the tortillas: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or skillet over medium heat. Cook tortillas for 10-15 seconds per side, or until lightly browned and pliable.
  9. Fill each tortilla with the cooked fish.
  10. Top with the yogurt sauce, shredded cabbage, and diced tomatoes.
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
