Baja Fish Tacos Recipe – A delicious way to prepare Indiana-caught fish like crappie, bluegill, or yellow perch. These crispy, seasoned fillets are topped with fresh ingredients, including jalapeños, tomatoes, shredded cabbage, and a creamy Baja sauce, all wrapped in soft corn tortillas.

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. In a medium-size bowl, combine breadcrumbs, garlic powder, taco seasoning mix, and salt to taste.
  3. Dip individual fillets in milk, then transfer to breadcrumb mixture to completely coat on all sides. Place on a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil. Repeat until all fillets have been breaded.
  4. Spray all sides of breaded fillets with a light coating of olive oil. Place in preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
  5. While fish is baking, mix all ingredients for the Baja sauce in a separate bowl. Place in refrigerator until fish is ready.
  6. When fish is done baking, heat the tortillas in the stove until warm, or microwave for 35 seconds.
  7. Assemble tacos by adding 2-3 fillets, shredded cabbage, and Baja sauce to each tortilla. Top with chopped tomato.
