BAJA STYLE FISH TACOS

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup dark Mexican beer*
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup Mexican crema** or sour cream
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Oil, for frying
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
2 pounds skinned halibut cut into 5 by 1/2-inch strips
Freshly ground black pepper
Corn tortillas
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 cups tomatillo salsa (store-bought or homemade) for garnish, optional
Pickled jalapenos, for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • For the Beer Batter:
  • Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually add in the beer while whisking. Set aside and let the batter rest for 15 minutes before using.
  • For Cream Sauce:
  • Add the mayonnaise and crema to a medium bowl. Whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice and water. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper (can be made 3 days ahead, covered and refrigerated).
  • For the Fish:
  • In a large skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of 1-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when inserted into the oil.
  • On a large plate, combine the flour and salt. Season the fish pieces all over with salt and pepper and coat with the flour. Working in batches, dip the fillets in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Make tacos with the tortillas and fish and top each with cream, shredded cabbage, tomatillo salsa and pickled jalapenos, if desired.
  • *Cook's Note: Crack open a cold Mexican cerveza like a Negra Modelo or a 2 Equis (XX) Amber to make this tasty beer batter, which will change the way you think about fried fish! You can use it for vegetables, too.
  • **Cook's Note: Mexican Crema is Mexico's version of creme fraiche and is found at many supermarkets and can easily be substituted with sour cream.

BAJA-STYLE FISH TACOS



Baja-Style Fish Tacos image

These fish tacos are a traditional Mexican dish that's sure to be a crowd-pleaser. A quick lime juice marinade for the cod provides a hint of citrus in each bite, and the beer batter is wonderfully crisp and light. Simple, rustic, delicious: it's everything you want from Mexican street food.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound cod fillet, or another firm white fish, such as halibut
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
4 cups grapeseed oil, for frying
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup lager, preferably Modelo or Tecate brand
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sambal, an Indonesian chili sauce, available in many grocery stores or online
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, may substitute yellow mustard
1 pinch dried oregano, preferably Mexican
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 corn tortillas, preferably freshly made, see Homemade Corn Tortillas recipe
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/4 head green or red cabbage, finely sliced
1 avocado, cut into slices
1/2 cup Yucatán-Style Pickled Red Onions, see Yucatán-Style Pickled Red Onions recipe

Steps:

  • Marinate: Slice fish into 1-inch-thick pieces (about 2 ounces each). Place in a wide, shallow bowl and season with salt on all sides. Pour lime juice over the pieces and let rest while preparing the batter, 5-10 minutes.
  • Make batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and beer until smooth. Whisk in baking powder, then add sambal, mustard, oregano, and salt, and whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • Dredge, batter, and deep-fry: Place flour on a plate. Add oil to a pot and set over medium heat. Secure a thermometer to the pot's side and heat oil to 375 F. Remove fish from marinade, one piece at a time, and dredge in flour on both sides. Then dip in the batter, coat well, and carefully place into the hot oil. Repeat with one or two more pieces, working in batches to avoid crowding the pot. Fry until the fish is evenly cooked and golden brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer fish to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Assembly: Warm tortillas on a comal or skillet over low heat. While tortillas are heating, mix together mayonnaise and crème fraîche in a small bowl. Place a warm tortilla on a plate, and spread a dollop of mayo-crème sauce down the middle. Place a piece of fish on top of the sauce, followed by another spoonful of sauce. Add cabbage, an avocado slice or two, then finish with a spoonful of pickled red onions. Repeat assembly with remaining ingredients and serve immediately.

Provided by JohnBailey

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 2h5m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 23

½ cup tequila
½ cup fresh lime juice
½ cup water
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 pounds cod fillet, cut into 3- by 1-inch strips
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 (12 ounce) package coleslaw mix
1 tablespoon chopped green onions
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 cup oil for deep frying
9 corn or flour tortilla

Steps:

  • Make a marinade by whisking together the tequila, lime juice, water, 2 tablespoons salt, turbinado sugar, and 1 tablespoon chili powder in a large bowl. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade. Add the cod to the remaining marinade; cover and set aside.
  • Stir together the reserved 1/4 cup marinade, black beans, and jalapeno; set aside.
  • Mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, 1 tablespoon chili powder, cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, and green onions in a large bowl. Add the coleslaw mix and green onion and mix until coated; set aside.

  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Gently lie the coated fish in the skillet without crowding the pieces. Cook in the hot oil, turning once, until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • While frying the cod, heat the black bean mixture in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat the reserved marinade in a separate small saucepan over medium-low heat.
  • Assemble tacos by placing fish in the center of tortilla; top with coleslaw, black beans, and any other desired toppings. Drizzle some of the heated marinade over the fillings and fold the tortilla to close.

TACOS DE PESCADO (BAJA STYLE BUT NO CABBAGE)



Tacos De Pescado (Baja Style but No Cabbage) image

I love Tacos Pescado, but I'm not a fan of the Baja Style. I love the breaded and fried fish, but I just can't embrace having it served in tortillas with cole slaw. I found this style of Tacos Pescado while eating at J. Anthony's Seafood Cafe in San Antonio, TX. I've duplicated and improved the style somewhat.

RACHAEL RAY'S BAJA FISH TACOS



Rachael Ray's Baja Fish Tacos image

I searched for fish taco recipe's here and was not impressed with the results, so I went to Rachaels site and I am just storing the recipe here. Have not made it yet, but can't wait to try it!

Provided by stke0504

Categories     Halibut

Time 40m

Yield 8 Tacos, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

48 inches flour tortillas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus
oil, for shallow frying
2 ripe avocados, pit removed and peeled
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1/4 cup sour cream (eyeball it)
3 limes, juice of, divided, zest of 2
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2-1 cup beer, any kind you like (eyeball it)
1 tablespoon hot sauce (eyeball it)
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 1/2 lbs haddock or 1 1/2 lbs halibut, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried chipotle powder
salt, to taste
1 small head napa cabbage, cored and shredded
1 large red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven 250°F.
  • Wrap the tortillas in foil and place them in the oven to warm up while you prepare the rest of the meal. Or, wrap them in a clean, damp kitchen towel and microwave them until warm and pliable right before you're ready to eat.
  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, add about an inch and a half vegetable oil; make sure the pot is deep enough so you have a few inches between the top of the layer of oil and the edge of the pot. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil temperature reaches 375°F To see if it has reached the desired temperature, drop a cube of bread in the oil. If it browns up by the count of 40, it's good to go. Another way to check is to place the tip of the handle to a wood spoon in the oil, if little bubbles form on the sides, the oil is ready.
  • While the oil is heating up, prepare the avocado sauce: in a food processor, add avocados, garlic, sour cream, zest and juice of two limes and blend until smooth.
  • For the batter for the fish, combine the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder together in large bowl. Whisk in the beer, hot sauce and sesame seeds, and stir until the batter is smooth. The batter consistency should be quite thick, so add the beer accordingly.
  • Season the fish with the coriander, chipotle powder and salt.
  • Working in batches, drop some of the seasoned fish into the bowl with the batter and coat completely. Using a fork or tongs, gently remove the fish from the batter and carefully place into the hot oil. Cook fish for 4-5 minutes, turning continuously, until golden and crispy all over. Cook them in batches if you need to; you don't want to overcrowd the pot. Remove pieces to a paper towel-lined platter.
  • While the fish is frying, prepare the cabbage mixture: place a large skillet over high heat with two turns of the pan of vegetable oil, about two tablespoons. Once hot, add the shredded cabbage and sliced onions, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. Season with some salt, pepper and juice of one lime.
  • Add 2-3 pieces of the fish to a tortilla, then top with the avocado sauce and cabbage salad. Fold it and eat it up!

CLASSIC BAJA-STYLE FISH TACOS



Classic Baja-Style Fish Tacos image

The original recipe is from The Gourmet Cookbook, and is adapted from the tacos served at Rubio's Baja Grill. I've made a couple changes, but mostly to the sauce -- trying to duplicate the wonderful sauce used at Barryhill Baja Grill in Houston. It may take a little more work but frying the fish twice is what gives it a crisper crust.

FISH TACOS - BAJA STYLE



Fish Tacos - Baja Style image

Beer battered fish with a "secret" garlic cilantro sauce, guacamole, and salsa. The fish are double fried allowing you to do most of the preparation ahead of time and making the fish crispy. My mom has declared this her favorite meal. Grandmother said this was the best fish she has had in 89 years and 10 months. This really makes more servings than listed, but people usually continue eating these even when they are full!

Categories     Mexican

Time 1h45m

Yield 26 tacos, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried whole Mexican oregano, rubbed to a powder
kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 (12 ounce) bottle cold beer, plus more to thin the batter if necessary
2 lbs firm meaty fish (cod, snapper etc.)
freshly squeezed lime juice
vegetable oil (for deep frying)
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup low-fat yogurt
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
corn tortilla, warmed
guacamole (avocado smashed with a little lime juice and salt)
lime wedge
shredded green cabbage
pico de gallo or salsa
cilantro leaf (optional)
chopped white onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the batter: Whisk the flour, baking powder, garlic, cayenne, mustard,oregano, 1 teaspoons salt, and pepper until well blended. Stir in the beer until there are no lumps. (Batter may be made several hours ahead and refrigerated).
  • Trim the fish of all blood lines, skin, and bones. Cut into pieces the size and shape of your index finger. Sprinkle with a few drops of lime juice and a little salt. (If not using immediately, wrap and refrigerate). Pour the oil into a deep, wide pan to a depth of 2 inches and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees. I use a thermometer, or you can drop a bit of batter into the oil and it should rise up quickly surrounded by little bubbles.
  • Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Check the thickness of the batter by dipping in one piece of the fish. The batter should be the consistency of medium-thick pancake batter, coating the fish easily but dripping very little. Add a little beer if the batter seems too thick.
  • Add the fish to the batter. Using tongs or chopsticks, swish each piece to make sure it is thoroughly coated, then lift out of the batter, let it drip once, and lay the fish gently into the hot oil. Cook a few pieces at a time until they float and the batter is set but still very light in color. If a piece sticks to the bottom, leave it alone and it will release itself.
  • Remove the fish to a rack to drain; reserve the frying oil. (The fish can be prepared ahead to this point, cooled on a rack, and refrigerated uncovered. Cool the oil and reserve).
  • When you are ready to serve, reheat the oil to 350-360°F and refry the fish a few pieces at a time until crisp and golden brown.
  • To serve, hold a tortilla in your hand and add a spoonful of guacamole. Top with fish and squeeze lime over the whole thing. Then add the secret sauce, salsa, shredded cabbage, cilantro and onion as desired.
