Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the olive oil, ground coriander, ancho chile powder, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Add the fish chunks and turn them until every piece is coated.
- Put the mayonnaise, garlic, mint, cumin and lime juice in a food processor and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, adding more lime juice if needed. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
- Warm a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat without adding oil. The pan is ready when a sprinkle of water sizzles and evaporates.
- Place the fish pieces in the pan; they should sizzle gently but firmly. Cook about 3 minutes per side, until cooked through but still moist. The fish should flake easily with a fork.
- Remove the fish from the pan and serve right away with warm tortillas, mayo, cabbage, scallions, banana pepper strips if using, and lime wedges.
