Ingredients
  

Fish and Tortillas

  • 12 pieces mild tasting fish (e.g., Pollock or cod)
  • 12 pieces corn tortillas
  • vegetable oil for deep frying Amount will vary depending on your fryer.

Batter

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup beer I recommend dark beer such as Guinness.
  • garlic powder to taste.
  • black pepper to taste.

Toppings

  • 1 cup Rubio's™ White Sauce
  • 3 cups finely shredded cabbage
  • 3 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 pieces limes, cut into wedges

Instructions
 

Batter Preparation

  • Combine the flour, garlic powder and black pepper. Mix with the beer and let it sit for at least an hour.

Fish Preparation

  • Wash the fish in water with a bit of salt or some lime juice then dry it completely.

Frying

  • Heat the vegetable oil to 375 degrees. Check the oil temperature using a cube of bread.
  • Vigorously whisk the batter before dipping the fish to make it lighter and crispier.
  • Dip the fish into the batter and immediately into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown, turning as necessary.

Tortilla Preparation

  • While frying the fish, warm the tortillas on a dry hot skillet until hot. Place them in a tortilla warmer and keep covered.

Pico de Gallo Preparation

  • Combine the tomato, onion and cilantro in a separate bowl to make Pico de Gallo. Set aside in the refrigerator.

Assembly

  • Place a warm tortilla on your plate and add a piece of the fish at the center.
  • Spoon a small amount of the white sauce over the fish. Optionally add finely shredded cheese.
  • Spoon some Pico de Gallo over the fish, add a handful of cabbage, and squeeze lime over.
  • If desired, add Rubio's Hot Sauce for spice. Fold up the tortilla and enjoy!

Notes

Optional to add cheese or hot sauce as per taste.
