Instructions
Place cucumber in a mini food processor or grate with a box cheese grater. Drain the liquid from the cucumber in a metal strainer and use the back of a spoon to help squeeze out any excess liquid.
Combine with the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, mint, dill, salt, pepper and refrigerate until read to eat.
Season fish with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut into 8 strips.
Place flour on a plate and egg in a shallow bowl. On another plate, combine panko with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, garlic powder and oregano.
Air Fryer Method:
Preheat the air fryer to 400F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to the basket and cook in a single layer 4 minutes, turn and cook 2 to 3 more minutes, until golden and crisp.
Oven Method:
Preheat the oven to 425F. Coat the fish pieces in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, then into the panko and onto a board lined with parchment or wax paper. Spray both sides of the fish with oil then transfer to a baking sheet and cook in a single layer 5 to 6 minutes, turn and cook 5 to 6 more minutes, until golden and crisp.
To serve, place 1/4 cup cabbage over each tortilla, top with a piece of fish, tzatziki, tomatoes, red onion and squeeze fresh lemon juice over everything.
