Crispy avocados topped with crunchy mango lime slaw and cilantro, wrapped in a soft corn tortilla. So good!
Ingredients
Fried Avocados
- 3 avocados
- 1 - 1 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- garlic powder
- salt
- vegetable oil
Sauce
- 1 ripe mango about 2 cups
- 8-10 fresh cilantro leaves or to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1/2 - 1 tbsp honey depends on how sweet your mangoes are
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
Mango Lime Slaw
- 4 oz shredded cabbage
- salt to taste
Tacos
- 8-10 small corn tortillas
Instructions
- Start by preparing the sauce and slaw. In a blender, add the 5 ingredients under "sauce" and blend. Then pour 1/3-1/2 cup of sauce to shredded cabbage and mix well. Add salt to taste. Save the rest of the sauce for later.
- Slice avocados, and sprinkle garlic powder and salt generously on both sides of the avocados.
- Prepare a bowl of panko breading and another bowl of whisked egg. Dip avocados into egg mixture and then evenly coat them with panko breading.
- Heat up vegetable oil in pan. Once oil is bubbly, add breaded avocados. Cook both sides of avocados until they turn golden brown.
- Warm corn tortillas in microwave for about 20 seconds (do 5 tortillas at a time). Add additional time if needed. You can also warm tortilla using a pan (no oil necessary).
- Add fried avocados and slaw to corn tortilla. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Spoon sauce onto fried avocados.
- Consume immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
I start by preparing the sauce and slaw, and then the avocados. This way, once the avocados are fried, I can combine and serve immediately to prevent the avocados from turning cold and soggy.
