Steps:

• 1. Prepare salsa: arrange oven racks in center and top half of oven, and preheat oven to broil. Trim about 1 inch from tip of corn to form a flat end. Place corn on baking sheet and transfer to top oven rack. Broil, turning once, until kernels are brown and blistered, about 18 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Over a cutting board, stand corn upright on cut end and carefully slice kernels from cob in a downward motion. Transfer kernels to a medium bowl. Add cucumber, onion, tomatoes, peppers, zest and juice of 1 lime, oil, cilantro, 1/4 tsp cumin, and 1/4 tsp salt to bowl. Refrigerate until needed.
• 2. Preheat oven to 425 degees. Stack tortillas on top of each other and wrap in aluminum foil. Place packet on one side of a parchment lined baking sheet.
• 3. In a shallow bowl, add flour. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk egg whites, remaining cumin, and 1/4 tsp salt. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse rice cereal into a fine powder; transfer to a third shallow bowl. Mix brown rice cereal with panko crumbs. Pat halibut dry with a paper towel. Working with one piece at a time, coat each strip in rice flour, then egg mixture, and finally the rice cereal/panko mixture. Arrange strips in a single layer on empty side of baking sheet that you placed tortillas on. Generously mist tops of prepared fish with olive oil cooking spray and bake in center of oven for 6 minutes or until coating is golden and crispy.
• 4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine yogurt, feta, and remaining lime zest and juice. Set aside. Chop up 1 avocado into small chunks and set aside as well.
• 5. To assemble tacos, carefully open foil packet of tortillas and allow steam to escape...they will be hot! Lay tortillas in a single layer on cutting board and mix avocado with salsa. Spoon avocado/salsa mixture onto center of each. Top each with 1 piece of halibut, yogurt-feta mixture, and finely shredded lettuce. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1 1/2-inch chunks. (Reserve 1 fillet and refrigerate for the online Round 2 Recipe, Ceviche.)
• To make the batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in enough water, about 1 to 1 1/2 cups, until the mixture is the consistency of pancake batter.
• Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• When the oil is hot, working in batches, dip the fish pieces into the batter and carefully add them to the hot oil. Cook the fish until golden brown on both sides and the fish is cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes total. Remove from the pan and drain on to a sheet tray lined with a paper bag or paper towels.
• To make the sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, hot sauce, lime juice, garlic, and 2 tablespoons cilantro in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel and microwave on medium for 1 minute to warm. Put about 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage on each tortilla. Put 3 pieces of the fried fish on top of the cabbage, then top with some sauce. Arrange the tacos on a serving platter and garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• To fry the fish: Fill a large heavy bottomed pot about 1/3 full of peanut oil. Heat to 375 degrees F. While the oil is heating, put the breadcrumbs into a shallow dish. Break the eggs into another shallow dish, season with salt and pepper, and beat them with 2 tablespoons of water. Cut the fish into 1-inch wide strips. Dip them into the egg, then coat them well with the breadcrumbs. Set aside and let them rest for 10 minutes. Cook the fish a few pieces at a time until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• To make the tacos: Heat a dry cast iron skillet over medium heat. Warm a corn tortilla in the pan until it softens, about 30 seconds. Place a fish strip on it, top with some of the shredded cabbage, and a big dollop of Pink Chili Mayo. Squeeze on some lime juice, roll up, and eat!
• Put the mayonnaise, sour cream, peppers, and lime juice in a blender and process to a puree. Refrigerate the mayo for 1/2 hour to let the flavors to blend; taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
