Thai Style Fish Tacos
makes 3-5 tacos
2 large catfish filets, rinsed
1/4 cup unsweetened, dried flaked coconut
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 T cornstarch
1 tsp salt
2 T coconut oil
4 large flour tortillas, warmed
Thai coleslaw (recipe below)
Peach salsa (recipe below)
Mix coconut, cornstarch, panko, and salt. Dredge catfish filets in coconut mixture. Set aside.
Heat coconut oil in large cast iron skillet. When oil is hot, add fish filets. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (time will depend on the thickness of the filets).
Cut filets into manageable pieces. Place one piece of fish in each warmed tortilla. Top with coleslaw and salsa, to taste. Serve with chips and additional salsa on the side.

Mix yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, fish sauce, curry paste, brown sugar, and salt (to taste). Toss dressing with cabbage. Add cilantro to taste.
Serve alone as a side dish, or with fish tacos.
