Mexican Fish Tacos

Ready for something fresh & tasty on your table in 15mins? 

If the answer is yes then keep reading & get ready for some seriously easy Mexican Fish Tacos. 

To keep this to 15mins or less I advise that you use store bought chipotle dressing & coleslaw. If however you have the extra time then just go ahead and whip them up yourself from the many recipes you can find online. 

Ingredients:

Coleslaw 

Chipotle Dressing

Sea salt

Black pepper

Beer

Cod fillets (cut 1 inch think & 4 inches long)

Chopped red onion

Grated cheese

Fresh lime (cut into wedges)

Lettuce (hand torn & washed)

All purpose flour 

Panko 

Vegetable oil (for frying)

Corn tortillas 

Method:

First thing to do is put all your toppings and salad into separate serving dishes and put them on your table before you start any cooking. If you use store bought dressing & coleslaw this will take a maximum of 5mins. 

When that's done get a deep frying pan and add about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil & turn up the heat to medium. 

Grab a bowl & add 1 cup of flour, pinch of sea salt & a good pinch of black pepper. Using a hand whisk mix in about a cup of beer until you have no lumps. 

When your oil is hot enough dip your cod in the beer batter then give it a quick roll in panko. Then gently place it into the hot pan. (This part you should be doing quickly but safely!) Repeat for all you fish, you should be frying about 4-5 bits at the same time. Fry for 2mins then using tongs gently turn them over & fry for a further 2mins. When they have a nice golden color lift them out and onto a paper covered plate to soak up any excess oil, this helps get them crunchy. 

(The frying should have taken around 8mins.)

After a minute or two transfer your crunchy fish to a fresh plate and serve it to your table. 

Pop some tortilla breads in the microwave for 30secs to warm them up. 

Grab a few cold beers & get stuck in!

Everything done in 15mins! (Take your time enjoying your food).
