Beer-Battered Fish Tacos
This beer-battered fish taco recipe is a fantastic way to incorporate the refreshing taste of beer into your meal. Let’s gather our ingredients and start cooking!
Ingredients
- 1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beer (your choice of lager or pale ale)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for a kick)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
- Taco shells or tortillas
- Toppings: shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, avocado, lime wedges, and your favorite salsa
Instructions
- Start by preparing your fish. Rinse the fillets under cold water, then pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut them into strips or chunks, depending on your preference.
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer until the batter is smooth. It should be thick enough to coat the fish but not too thick that it won’t fry well.
- In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. You’ll want enough oil to submerge the fish pieces while frying.
- Once the oil is hot (you can test this by dropping a small amount of batter into it—if it sizzles, it’s ready), dip each piece of fish into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off before gently placing it in the hot oil.
- Fry the fish in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the fish from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Warm your taco shells or tortillas, and then assemble your tacos. Place a few pieces of the crispy beer-battered fish in each taco, and top with shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, avocado, a squeeze of lime juice, and your favorite salsa.
- Enjoy your delicious beer-battered fish tacos with a nice cold beer on the side!
This dish is perfect for gatherings or a simple family dinner. The crispiness of the beer batter combined with the fresh toppings makes for a mouthwatering experience. Cheers to good food and great times!
