Beer Battered Halibut Tacos

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beer Batter

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Halibut

    Cut the halibut fillets into manageable strips. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  4. 4

    Batter the Halibut

    Dip each strip of halibut into the beer batter, allowing any excess to drip off.

  5. 5

    Fry the Halibut

    Carefully place the battered halibut into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Sour Cream

    In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave. Place a piece of fried halibut in each tortilla, top with shredded cabbage, Monterey Jack, cheddar cheese, salsa fresca, and fresh cilantro. Drizzle with lemon sour cream.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with tortilla chips and additional salsa on the side.
