How to make it

  • Thai Slaw Dressing: ------------
  • Whisk fish sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, chili paste, coconut milk and peanut butter together in small pot over medium-low heat.
  • Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
  • Thin with coconut milk if needed to obtain a sauce that pours easily.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with honey and red pepper flakes.
  • Thai Slaw: ------------
  • Combine red cabbage, carrots, daikon and red onion in a large bowl.
  • Toss with half of the slaw dressing.
  • Set remaining dressing aside for serving with the tacos.
  • Catfish Tacos: ------------
  • Preheat grill to medium heat.
  • Rub both sides of fish with a little oil.
  • When grill is hot, use tongs to rub the grate with an oiled paper towel.
  • Grill fish 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, wrap a stack of tortillas in foil and place on grill over low heat, turning once while the fish cooks.
  • When the fish is done, remove it from the grill and cut into pieces.
  • Pile fish in warm tortillas. Top with Thai slaw, sliced avocado, cilantro leaves and extra Thai slaw dressing.
  • Serve with lime wedges.

    This recipe is excellent! We just finished eating dinner and my husband and I both loved them. I marinated the catfish in Annies Baja Lime Marinade.....it was great. The Thai Slaw and dressing were a meal in itself! Thanks for sharing this.

    I love fish tacos, but I've never made one. I'm kinda' afraid of catfish 'tho. All them tiny bones drive me nuts. Even the filets I get seem to have a galaxy of them. What's up with that? Do they melt down while you cook them?

    Fish tacos are a favorite of mine and so is Thai food. Combining the two in one recipe for me is extreme cuisine! Great post, can't wait to try it. Has to be a 5 five all those flavors going on.
