Cooking Steps

1
  • Thinly slice jalapeño into 1/4-inch rounds, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!)
  • Add vinegar, 2 tbsp water, 2 tsp sugar (dbl both for 4 ppl) and jalapeños to a small pot. Season with salt.
  • Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, 1-2 min.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Transfer jalapeños, including liquid, to a medium bowl. Place in the fridge to cool.
2
  • Heat a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add 2 tsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then the panko. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 2-3 min. Transfer to a shallow dish.
3
  • Pat the tilapia dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and Lemon-Pepper Seasoning.
  • Pour the panko into a shallow dish. Coat the tilapia all over with half the mayo.
  • Working with one fillet at a time, press each piece of fish into the panko to coat completely.
  • Set on a unlined baking sheet. Roast in the middle of the oven, until tilapia is cooked through, 10-12 min.**

Check in dev if this oven placement is good or should it be top?

4
  • Transfer pickled jalapeños to a plate. Set aside.
  • Add coleslaw cabbage mix, half the cilantro, remaining mayo and reserved pickling liquid to the medium bowl (from step 1). Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
5
  • Wrap tortillas in foil, then place in the top of the oven until warm, 4-5 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)
6
  • Meanwhile, using two forks, gently flake tilapia into bite-sized pieces.
  • Divide tortillas between plates. Top with coleslaw, fish and pickled jalapeños.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
