Fried Halibut Tacos Ingredients

Method

Directions for Fried Halibut Tacos

1

Prepare the Halibut

Season the halibut fillets with salt and black pepper. Set up a breading station with flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and a mixture of cornmeal and a pinch of salt in a third.

2

Bread the Halibut

Dredge each fillet in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the cornmeal mixture. Set aside on a plate.

3

Fry the Halibut

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded halibut fillets. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

4

Cook the Plantains

Peel and slice the plantains diagonally. In the same skillet with a bit of leftover oil, fry the plantain slices until golden brown and caramelized, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Layer each tortilla with a few pieces of fried halibut, a scoop of cooked rice, black beans, fried plantains, slices of avocado, and a generous spoonful of pico de gallo salsa.

6

Serve

Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra flavor.
