Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Cut the fish fillets into smaller pieces. In three separate bowls, place flour (mixed with salt and pepper), beaten eggs, and cornmeal. Dip each piece of fish first into the flour, then into the eggs, and finally coat with cornmeal.

  2. 2

    Fry the Fish

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded fish pieces until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assemble Tacos

  1. 3

    Build the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Place some fried fish in each tortilla, top with pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, and drizzle with chipotle sauce.

Serve

  1. 4

    Serve with Rice

    Serve the tacos with a side of cooked rice.
