Fish Taco Recipe


INGREDIENTS:


  • 4 raw fish filets
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup of flour
  • 1 & 1/2  cups of Bread crumbs (any kind, but Panka bread crumbs are recommended)
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Vegetable oil
  • 4 hard taco shells
  • Tabasco sauce (optional)


chunky salsa (see recipe below)

guacamole (see recipe below)



DIRECTIONS:


  1. Put some oil in a skillet, so the oil is about an inch deep.
  2. Turn heat to medium-high.
  3. Rinse fish filets and place them on paper towels.
  4. Coat a clean, dry dinner plate with a layer of flour.
  5. Fill a shallow dish with bread crumbs.
  6. Beat the egg in a shallow dish.
  7. Coat fish filets lightly with flour.  Pat them to remove excess flour.
  8. One by one, coat each fish filet in the beaten egg. Hold each filet over the egg dish until excess egg drips off.
  9. Place each fish filet in the bread crumbs, cover it with crumbs, and press down gently.  Pat the filet in your hands to remove excess bread crumbs.
  10. Place fish filets in heated oil and cook for about 2 minutes on each side.
  11. Remove fish filets from the oil with a spatula and place them on dry paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  12. Place each cooked fish filet in a hard taco shell.
  13. Top with shredded lettuce, salsa, and guacamole.
  14. Add a dash of Tabasco sauce if desired.
