This Cajun Fish is full of flavor, has a beautiful crispy golden crust, and juicy flesh inside. It’s a super quick dinner, the fish is pan fried on the stove top and takes less than 10 minutes.
Serve along with this Collard Slaw, its incredibly easy to prepare and makes a fantastic light side dish with fish. The slaw is made with sour cream, mayonnaise and lime juice giving a creamy and slightly tart which make a great marriage with fish.
Make this into a Cajun Fish Taco Salad by simply layering lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheese (optional) onto a serving plate. Top with the crispy cajun fish, collard slaw, and low carb baked tortilla strips.
