Ingredients
Yield: 4 servings
Main
- 12-16 frozen fish sticks
- 8 small flour tortillas (taco size)
Creamy Slaw
- 2 cups pre-shredded coleslaw mix (green cabbage and carrots)
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp honey or sugar
- ½ tsp Dijon mustard
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For Serving (Optional)
- Sriracha or hot sauce, for a kick
- Lime wedges
- Chopped cilantro
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat your oven and bake the fish sticks according to package directions, typically 12-15 minutes at 400°F (200°C), until golden brown and crispy. While they bake, prepare the slaw.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey (or sugar), Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Add the coleslaw mix to the dressing and toss thoroughly until all the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated. Set aside.
Step 4
Once the fish sticks are cooked, warm the tortillas. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for 15-20 seconds per side, microwave for 15-20 seconds, or wrap them in foil and warm in the oven for a few minutes.
Step 5
To assemble the wraps: Place 1-2 warm fish sticks down the center of each tortilla. Top with a generous spoonful of the creamy slaw.
Step 6
Fold or roll up the tortillas. Serve immediately with a squeeze of fresh lime juice, a dash of hot sauce if you like, and chopped cilantro. Enjoy your quick and satisfying wraps!
Tips
- Don't skip warming the tortillas; it makes them more pliable and prevents cracking.
- For a healthier slaw, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise, or a 50/50 mix.
- Add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the slaw dressing for extra flavor.
