WHAT YOU NEED
- Beer Batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 egg
- 1 cup beer, (your preference)
- Tacos:
- 1 quart oil for frying
- 1 pound cod fillets, cut into 2 to 3 ounce portions

HOW TO MAKE IT
- For beer batter: In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, seasoning, salt and pepper. Blend egg and beer, then quickly stir into the flour mixture. Let sit while you prepare the sauce and oil for frying.
- For tacos: Pour oil into a large Dutch oven and heat to 375 degrees F. Once your oil is hot, dust fish pieces lightly with flour, then dip into beer batter. Fry until crisp and golden brown, about 2-3 mins on each side, a total of 6 mins. Drain on paper towels and lay on a wire rack until all fish is done.
- Warm up your tortillas in the microwave or on the stove. Place a piece of fish in a tortilla and top with cabbage, onions, avocado, cilantro and squeeze on Cacique® Cilantro Lime Flavored Sour Cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!
