BAJA FRIED FISH TACOS WITH SPICY CABBAGE SLAW

Baja Fried Fish Tacos With Spicy Cabbage Slaw image

I love these fish tacos. You can find them in many California areas. You can either order the fish grilled or fried and because I love deep fried food, it's always fried fish for me when ordering or making them. Besides the spicy cabbage slaw I also like to top the whole thing with mounds of salsa and taco sauce. Goes great with Pacifico!

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 cup salsa
1/3 cup mayonnaise
vegetable oil (for deep frying)
3/4 cup beer, plus
2 -3 tablespoons beer
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 -1 1/4 lb cod fish fillet, cut into 2 inch cubes
8 corn tortillas
4 cups coleslaw mix
8 lime wedges

Steps:

In a small bowl, mix salsa and mayonnaise; set aside.
In a Dutch oven or deep skillet, heat oil over medium high heat until it reaches 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). While the oil heats up, whisk beer, flour and salt in a medium bowl until smooth.
Using a fork, coat fish pieces in batter. Working in 2 batches, slide coated fish into hot oil. Fry until golden, about 4 minutes per batch. Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on paper towels; keep warm.
In a dry hot skillet, warm corn tortillas individually for 1-2 minutes per side. Stack on top of each other and keep warm in the oven.
To assemble, place 2 corn tortillas each on 4 individual plates.
Put 1/2 cup of cabbage on each tortilla. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the salsa mixture over each one. Evenly distribute fish pieces over the salsa and cabbage. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

Choose the right fish: For fish tacos, it's best to use a firm-fleshed fish that won't fall apart when cooked. Some good options include cod, tilapia, mahi-mahi, and halibut.

Cook the fish properly: The fish should be cooked until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.

Make a flavorful slaw: The slaw is an important part of fish tacos, so make sure it's flavorful and fresh. Use a variety of vegetables, such as cabbage, carrots, and red onion, and dress it with a tangy vinaigrette.

Use fresh tortillas: Fresh tortillas are essential for fish tacos. Corn tortillas are the traditional choice, but you can also use flour tortillas if you prefer.

Add your favorite toppings: There are many different toppings that you can add to fish tacos, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese. Experiment until you find your favorite combination.

Conclusion:

Fish tacos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make fish tacos at home that are just as good as the ones you get at a restaurant. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give fish tacos a try. You won't be disappointed!
