Crispy Baja Fish Tacos Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Fish

   In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer until smooth. Pat the fish fillets dry, then dip each piece into the batter.

   Fry the Fish

   In a large pot or deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the battered fish pieces in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

3. 3

   Prepare the Citrus Crema

   In a small bowl, mix sour cream, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Stir until well combined.

4. 4

   Warm the Tortillas

   In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

5. 5

   Assemble the Tacos

   On each tortilla, add a piece of crispy fish, top with shredded cabbage, sliced radishes, a drizzle of salsa verde, and a dollop of citrus crema.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the tacos immediately with extra lime wedges on the side if desired.
