Achieve flawless fish for delicious fish tacos with sous vide cooking!
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound halibut
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • Pinch of ground cumin
  • Apple Slaw:
  • 1 red apple, such as Fuji or Gala, peeled and diced
  • 4 to 5 radishes, diced
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • Juice from 1/2 lime (about 1 tablespoon)
  • Cilantro Sour Cream:
  • 2 tablespoons minced cilantro
  • To serve:
  • Taco-sized flour or corn tortillas
  • 1/2 red cabbage, sliced thin
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced thin
Instructions:
  • Prepare the sous vide water bath: Fill a pot with water and immerse the circulator. Set the temperature to 132°F and allow it to come to temperature.
  • Prepare the fish: Season halibut with a pinch of salt, pepper, and ground cumin, and place it in gallon-sized bags.
  • Seal the bag: Lower the bag into the water to release the air, then seal it. Proceed with cooking the halibut as the water heats up. Place the sealed bag aside on a kitchen towel until ready to cook.
  • Sous vide the halibut in the water at the specified temperature for 45 minutes. If the fillets are over 1 inch thick, extend cooking time by 15 minutes.
  • Prepare the apple slaw by combining diced apples and radishes with onions, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. In another bowl, mix sour cream with cilantro, lime juice, and salt to make the sour cream sauce.
  • Prepare the tacos: Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium-low heat a few minutes before the halibut is cooked. Break the cooked halibut into chunky pieces using a fork, then assemble the tacos by spreading sour cream sauce on each tortilla, adding avocado slices, cabbage, slaw, and about 2 ounces of sous-vide halibut. Finish by drizzling more sour cream sauce on top before serving.
