Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

3 cups finely sliced green cabbage
1 cup finely sliced red cabbage
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons torn fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pureed chipotle in adobo
1 teaspoon dark agave syrup
1 pound boneless, skinless halibut fillets
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups lager beer, chilled
2 quarts canola oil
Twelve 5-inch fresh corn tortillas
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 cup Rojo Salsa, recipe follows
Fresh Tortilla Chips, recipe follows
2 dried ancho chiles
2 dried guajillo chiles
2 dried pasilla chiles
4 quartered Roma tomatoes, stemmed
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 jalapeno, seeded and stemmed
1 medium sweet onion, sliced
Kosher salt
Kosher salt
Canola oil, for frying
24 thick, good-quality corn tortillas

Steps:

  • For the cabbage slaw: Add the cabbage to a mixing bowl and season with salt. Toss with your hands and gently massage the cabbage to tenderize. Add the cilantro and juice from the lime.
  • For the smoky chipotle aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, chipotle and agave in a small bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • For the Baja fish tacos: Carefully cut the halibut into 12 even-sized pieces (each about 4 inches long). Combine the cornstarch, chili powder and 3/4 cup flour in a large bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using a whisk, create a well in the center and slowly pour in the beer as you stir. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the beer, forming a smooth batter.
  • Heat 3 inches oil in a heavy pot to 350 degrees F. Line a tray with paper towels.
  • Season the remaining 1/4 cup flour in a shallow dish with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge each piece of fish in it, shaking off any excess. Dip into the batter, then place in the hot oil. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on the paper towels and season with salt. Keep warm.
  • To assemble, place a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Place the tortillas in the pan 2 at a time and lightly drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and cook until golden and the Parmesan is crispy and stuck to the tortilla, 30 to 40 seconds on each side.
  • To make each taco, smear a little chipotle aioli on the bottom of each tortilla. Top with some drained slaw, a piece of crispy fish and some Rojo Salsa. Serve with Tortilla Chips.
  • Remove the stems and seeds from the dried chiles, then tear them into large pieces. Toast the chiles in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until they start to change color, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add hot water to just cover the chiles (about 2 cups). Place back on medium-low heat and simmer until soft and tender, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Place the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno and onions on a baking tray, then broil until everything is charred well, turning once, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a blender along with the chiles and their cooking liquid and pulse until smooth but still with a little texture. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Set aside until ready to serve.
  • Break down the salt into finer pieces in a mortar and pestle (so it sticks to the chips better).
  • Heat 5 to 6 inches oil to 350 degrees F in a heavy pot.
  • Stack up the tortillas and cut into 6 even pieces. Working in batches, sprinkle into the hot oil and cook, stirring so they don't stick together, until puffed and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and place on a rack over a tray. Season with salt immediately. Serve warm with salsa.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 22

For the sauce:
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt
2 chipotle chiles
1 large pasilla, New Mexico, or guajillo chile, seeds removed
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
For the potatoes and assembly:
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, scrubbed, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt
1 large egg yolk
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
3/4 cup grapeseed oil
Vegetable oil (for frying; about 8 cups)
3/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Special Equipment
A spice mill or mortar and pestle; a deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Make the sauce:
  • Grind fennel seeds in spice mill or mortar and pestle; set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring often, until golden and soft, 8-10 minutes. Add chiles, garlic, coriander, and reserved fennel and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add tomatoes, crushing with your hands as you go, and juices; reduce heat and gently simmer, stirring occasionally at first and more frequently as sauce thickens, until sauce is thickened and jammy, 50-60 minutes. Let cool; discard chiles. Pulse sauce in a food processor to a coarse purée.
  • Make the potatoes and assemble:
  • While tomato sauce is cooking, rinse potatoes in a colander under cold water until water runs clear. Transfer to a large pot and pour in cold water to cover by 1". Season with salt and bring to a gentle simmer; cook until potatoes are just tender, 20-25 minutes. Drain and transfer potatoes to a kitchen towel-lined rimmed baking sheet. Chill (uncovered) until cold, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, whisk egg yolk, garlic, and vinegar in a small bowl to combine. Whisking constantly, gradually drizzle in grapeseed oil and continue to whisk until aioli is thickened and emulsified. Season with salt; stir in 1 tsp. water.
  • Fit a large pot with thermometer and pour in vegetable oil to measure 3". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 325°F. Working in batches, fry potatoes until skins begin to slightly bubble around edges but do not brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to paper towels to drain.
  • Reheat oil until thermometer registers 375°F. Working in batches, refry potatoes until golden brown and very crisp, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to fresh paper towels to drain.
  • Toss potatoes, paprika, and cumin in a large bowl; season with salt. Serve potatoes with tomato sauce and aioli.
