Recipe Information

Total Time:
Yield:
8 servings (2 tacos each)

Ingredients

Slaw

1 cup finely shredded red cabbage

2 large red radishes, cut into matchsticks

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, plus additional for garnish

4 quick-pickled pineapple spears, diced;

2 tablespoons chopped quick-pickled jalapeño slices

¼ cup pineapple-jalapeño pickling brine

Tacos

4 (4-ounce) cod loins, 1 inch thick*

1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt

1 teaspoon coarse-ground black pepper

½ teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon ground Aleppo pepper

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

8 (6-inch) flour tortillas

Cotija cheese, crumbled; for serving

Lime wedges, for serving

Directions

  1. For slaw, in a small bowl, combine cabbage, radishes, 2 tablespoons cilantro, pickled pineapple and jalapeño, and pickling brine; toss to combine. Refrigerate until serving.
  2. Preheat a charcoal or gas grill with a greased grill grate for direct cooking over medium-high heat (375°F).
  3. Pat cod dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, cumin, Aleppo pepper and smoked paprika. Rub mixture on cod.
  4. Grill cod for 10 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork (145°F), turning halfway through.
  5. Spray both sides of each flour tortilla with nonstick cooking spray. Grill for 1 to 2 minutes or until heated and slightly charred, turning halfway through. Remove from grill. If necessary, cover to keep warm.
  6. To serve, flake cod into bite-size pieces and divide among tortillas. Top with slaw and Cotija cheese. Garnish with additional cilantro and serve with fresh lime wedges, if desired.

*A cod loin is cut lengthwise from the middle section or fattiest part of a skinless cod fillet.
