Ingredients

3 tablespoons honey

2 canned chipotle peppers in adobo, chopped, plus 2 tablespoons adobo sauce

2 tablespoons olive oil 

2 limes, 1 zested and juiced, 1 sliced in half

One 16-ounce bag broccoli slaw 

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 

5 mini sweet peppers, sliced into rings 

1 to 2 serrano chiles, sliced thinly 

1 pound cod fillets 

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro 

12 corn taco shells, blistered 

Sliced avocado, sour cream, hot sauce and lime wedges, for the tacos

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Mix together the honey, chipotle peppers and adobo sauce, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and juice and zest of 1 lime in a small bowl to make a glaze. Set aside.
  3. Put the broccoli slaw in the bottom of a baking dish. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then toss. Scatter over the sliced sweet peppers and chiles. Top the slaw and peppers with the cod fillets. Season the cod with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the chipotle glaze over the fish and around the baking dish over the slaw.
  4. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flaky, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately squeeze over the juice of the other lime. Flake the cod into large chunks and sprinkle over the chopped cilantro.
  5. To build the tacos, place a couple chunks of cod into each taco shell. Top with a pinch of slaw, some sliced avocado, sour cream and hot sauce. Garnish with a lime wedge and squeeze over a little juice before eating.
