Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups chopped peeled papaya
1 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/3 cup chopped red onion
2 tbsp unsweetened coconut, toasted
1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tsp minced seeded jalapeno pepper (about 1 small)
1/4 tsp salt
1 lb red snapper fillets or other firm white fish
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup panko ( japanese breadcrumbs)
2 tbsp canola oil
remaining ingredients
8 (6-inch) yellow corn tortillas
2 cups finely shredded red cabbage
8 tsp reduced-fat sour cream
8 lime wedges

Directions:

To prepare salsa, combine the first 8 ingredients; let stand 30 minutes.
To prepare fish, place fish in a shallow dish; drizzle with 2 tablespoons juice. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes, turning fish occasionally.
Remove fish from marinade, discarding marinade; pat fish dry with paper towels. Sprinkle fish with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Dredge fish in panko, gently pressing to adhere. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Cut fish into chunks.
Heat tortillas according to package directions. Divide fish evenly among tortillas. Top each with 1/4 cup cabbage, 1/3 cup salsa, 1 teaspoon sour cream, and 1 lime wedge. Serve immediately.
Beer note: Lager is the white wine of beer-perfect with spicy foods or fish dishes. Pop open a Caribbean Red Stripe Lager ($7.50 for a six-pack), with its subtle aromas of sweet malt, grain, and fresh hay. It's delicate, yet refreshing against the jalapeño heat. The light, fluffy texture is also a nice contrast to the crunch of the fish. -Jeffery Lindenmuth
