Beer-Battered Fish Tacos with Tomato & Avocado Salsa

Lovers of fried fish get the taste without all the calories, and the salsa adds a fresh, clean note. To complete the Baja theme, serve with black beans, some diced mango and a bit of light sour cream.

Ingredients

  • Tomato & Avocado Salsa, (recipe follows) or store-bought fresh salsa
  • 3 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 1/3 cup beer
  • 8 ounces tilapia fillet, cut crosswise into 1-inch wide strips
  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 4 corn tortillas, warmed

Cooking Directions

Step 1


Prepare Tomato & Avocado Salsa, if using.

Step 2


Combine flour, cumin, salt and cayenne in a medium bowl. Whisk in beer to create a batter.

Step 3


Coat tilapia pieces in the batter. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Letting excess batter drip back into the bowl, add the fish to the pan; cook until crispy and golden, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Serve the fish with tortillas and salsa.
