Fish Tacos

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Napa Slaw

In a bowl, combine shredded napa cabbage, shredded carrots, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Toss together and set aside to marinate.

2

Prepare the Fish

Season the flounder fillets with the spicy adobo seasoning and a pinch of salt. Prepare the tempura batter according to package instructions using cold water.

3

Fry the Fish

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip each seasoned flounder fillet into the tempura batter, then carefully place into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave. Place a few pieces of fried flounder on each tortilla, top with napa slaw, and drizzle with chipotle mayo.

5

Serve

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
