Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, combine the crushed pork rinds, chili powder, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, and cayenne powder and set aside.
- Spread mayo lightly over each piece of tilapia. Then one at a time, coat all sides of each piece of fish with the pork rind mixture and place on a plate. Continue until all the fish is breaded.
- Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes. Then take out the basket and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Gently place the breaded fish into the basket and cook for 10-12 minutes at 380°F until nicely browned and crunchy.
- Let cool then place 1 piece of fish into each mini tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, drizzle with Queso Mama, and squeeze with fresh lime juice. Serve immediately.
- Note: If you do not have an air fryer, use a deep skillet to fry fish in hot vegetable oil that is about ½-inch deep in the skillet. Fry until golden brown.
