Baja Fish Tacos image

These Baja fish tacos are made from crispy beer-battered cod tucked into corn tortillas, topped with a cabbage slaw and smoky chipotle sauce.

Provided by Jennifer Segal (slaw and chipotle sauce adapted from Cook's Illustrated)

Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

5 cups (or one 10-ounce bag) shredded red cabbage
3 tablespoons minced red onion
½ cup fresh chopped cilantro
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1½ teaspoons vegetable oil
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's
2 tablespoons lime juice, from one lime
2-3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (canned), roughly chopped, plus 1-2 teaspoons sauce (see note below)
1 large garlic clove, roughly chopped
1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup beer
1½ pounds skinless cod, cut into 1-inch wide x 4-inch long strips
Vegetable oil, for frying
12 (6-inch) soft corn tortillas, warmed
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Toss the cabbage, red onion, cilantro, vinegar, oil and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, lime juice, chipotle chiles with sauce and garlic in a blender or mini food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  • Mix the flour, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl. Gradually add the beer, whisking until the batter is smooth with no lumps. Set aside.
  • In a medium skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of ½-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F, or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when dipped into the oil.
  • Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, dip the fish strips in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Let the excess batter drip off, then fry the fish in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
  • Smear each tortilla with a generous amount of the chipotle sauce, then top with the cabbage slaw. Lay one piece of fish inside each tortilla and serve with lime wedges.
  • Note: 3 chipotle peppers and 2 teaspoons sauce will give you a spicy sauce. Use less for a milder sauce. You can freeze any leftover chipotle peppers from the can.
  • Note: Nutritional information was calculated assuming that approximately 3 tablespoons of oil are absorbed into the fish when fried.
  • Note: Nutritional Information does not include the chipotle sauce.

HOMEMADE TACO SHELLS #1



Homemade Taco Shells #1 image

These are so good, you may NEVER buy taco shells again! But be prepared to be the last one to have a chance to sit down and eat. As soon as I sit down to eat my first taco, my guests are needing their 3rd or 4th or 5th one cooked...But, it is well worth it to hear that these are the best tacos they have ever had!

Provided by Cindy1

Categories     Sauces

Time 22m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup flour
1/2 cup yellow enriched cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups water
1 egg

Steps:

  • Preheat a dry skillet over medium/high heat.
  • Mix the ingredients well.
  • The batter will be runny.
  • Drop by large utensil spoonful onto skillet, quickly spreading the batter in a circular motion, working from the inside out.
  • Each side only takes about 1 minute of cooking.
  • The shells are not supposed to brown.
  • When the shells are removed from the pan, they can be molded into"taco shell shape" by placing, half-curled, between two objects, such as coffee cups.
  • I like to serve them to each guest directly from the pan without molding them, however, becuz I find that they dont crack while still hot and pliable.
  • Fill with all the taco stuffin's and enjoy!
