# How to Make It:
01 - Combine shredded cabbage, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, and salt in a large bowl. Toss thoroughly and set aside to marinate while preparing other components.
02 - Whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, hot sauce, honey, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until completely smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
03 - Pat fish fillets dry and cut into strips. Sprinkle both sides generously with cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, pressing spices into the flesh to adhere.
04 - For extra crunch, dredge seasoned fish strips in flour, dip into beaten egg, then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs, shaking off excess between each step.
05 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish strips and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Alternatively, grill brushed fish over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
06 - Heat tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until pliable and lightly charred, or wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes.
07 - Place a generous layer of slaw on each warm tortilla, top with cooked fish strips, drizzle with creamy sauce, and finish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
