Mike Ward’s Thai Style Fish Tacos

INGREDIENTS

Serves 4

• 1 lb. boneless, firm-fleshed fish, cut into small chunks
• Salt and pepper
• ½ head of white cabbage
• 1 red onion
• 2–3 red chili peppers
• 2–3 green onions
• 1 bunch fresh cilantro
• Thai sweet chili sauce
• Mayonnaise
• Fresh limes
• Flatbread or tortilla (Mike uses organic kamut flatbread)

DIRECTIONS

Cut fish into small chunks, season with salt and pepper, and fry in a sauté pan until just cooked. Finely chop the cabbage, red onion, chili peppers, and green onions, and tear up the cilantro. In a bowl, mix equal portions of Thai sweet chili sauce and mayonnaise until just combined. Take a flatbread or tortilla, load ’er up with fish and veggies, and top with cilantro and sauce. “Crack a beer and pretend it’s summer and you’re laughing,” says Ward. For added flair, garnish each serving with a lime half, grilled just enough to brown the surface.
