Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lemon Sour Cream

    In a small bowl, mix sour cream with lemon juice. Stir until smooth and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Beer Batter

    In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the Blonde Eagle Ale until the batter is smooth and thick.

  3. 3

    Fry the Halibut

    Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Dip halibut fillets into the beer batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered halibut in the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the tortillas in a skillet. To each tortilla, add a piece of fried halibut, followed by shredded cabbage, shredded Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses, salsa fresca, and chopped cilantro.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with a generous dollop of lemon sour cream on top, alongside a side of chips and additional salsa.
