Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Vegetable oil, for frying
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons ground cumin
3 teaspoons cayenne pepper
3 teaspoons salt
12 ounces beer
3 (8-ounce) tilapia fillets, cut into chunks
8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
Quick-Pickled Onion and Cucumber, recipe follows
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 tablespoon salt
1 large red onion, medium dice
1 large Vidalia onion, medium dice
1 English cucumber, medium dice
1 habanero chile, seeds removed, minced
1 Roma tomato, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with oil halfway up the pot. Heat oil to 350 degrees F. Preheat grill.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together 1 cup flour, cumin, cayenne, and salt. Slowly whisk in beer until thick, but not runny. Dredge fish in remaining flour first, then dunk in the batter. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper-toweled lined plate.
  • Meanwhile, grill tortillas on grill.
  • Serve fish in tortillas topped with Quick-Pickled Onion and Cucumber.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring to a boil the vinegar, sugar, water, and salt. Add onions and cucumber and continue to cook a few minutes more. Remove from heat, add chile, and transfer to a bowl. Let cool slightly then chill covered, for at least 1 hour.
  • Toss in the tomato and cilantro, 5 minutes before serving.

These tacos were delicious! The fish was cooked perfectly and the batter was crispy. The pickled onion and cucumber added a nice tangy flavor. I would definitely make these again.

The tacos were good, but not great. The fish was a bit dry and the batter was not crispy enough. The pickled onion and cucumber were good, but they didn't add much flavor to the tacos.

I found the recipe to be a bit too complicated. There were too many ingredients and steps involved. The tacos were good, but not worth the effort.

The fish tacos were a bit bland. The batter was not crispy and the fish was overcooked. The pickled onion and cucumber were good, but they couldn't save the tacos.

I wasn't sure how the beer batter would turn out, but it was amazing! The fish was cooked perfectly and the batter was crispy and flavorful. The pickled onion and cucumber added a nice crunch and tang. I will definitely be making these tacos again.

I've made these tacos several times now and they are always a crowd-pleaser. The batter is so easy to make and the fish always comes out crispy and flaky. I love the pickled onion and cucumber topping - it adds a really nice crunch and flavor.
