Prepare the toppings by mixing 1 cup sliced cabbage, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, 1/2 cup diced tomatoes, and 1/2 cup diced white onions in a bowl.

Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 lime and add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt, then mix everything together and set aside.

In another bowl, stir together 2 eggs and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup plain panko bread crumbs with 1 ounce fish taco seasoning and mix well, then set aside.

Cut a little over 1 pound of cod fillet into small chunks, then season with another ounce of fish taco seasoning, applying it evenly.

Dab any leftover seasoning onto the fish pieces.

Dip each piece of fish into plain flour, then into the egg wash, and finally coat with the panko bread crumbs.

Spray the coated fish pieces with cooking oil on top.

Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once preheated, spray the air fryer basket with oil, then place the fish pieces inside.

Set the air fryer to 380 degrees for 12 minutes, flipping the fish halfway through at the 6-minute mark.

After 12 minutes, check the largest piece of fish to ensure it has reached an internal temperature above 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Microwave flour tortillas for 30 seconds to warm them up.

Assemble the tacos by placing the fish on the warmed tortillas.

Slice 1 avocado and place slices on top of the fish in each taco.

Add the prepared toppings on top of the fish and avocado.

Finish by adding a dollop of sour cream on each taco.
