• Cut fish into small strips about 1/4 in x 2 inches long.
• Dip fish pieces into batter and place in hot oil about 4-6 pieces at a time.
• Be careful to not overcrowd the oil because this will drop the temperature too low and the fish will become oily.

• Continue to cook until all fish has been cooked.

FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE AIOLI

Steps:

• To make the sauce:.
• Put mayonnaise, sour cream, peppers, and lime juice in a blender and process to a puree. Add salt & pepper to taste. Place in a bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour. After chilled test for seasoning. Add salt & pepper if needed.
• To make the fish:.
• Heat a heavy pan about 1/4 full of peanut oil to approximately 375 degrees. Place Panko crumbs, salt, pepper, and chipotle powder in a shallow bowl. Wisk eggs into another shallow bowl with some salt & pepper. Slice fish into taco size pieces, about 1 inch wide by 3-4 inches long. Dip fish into the egg wash and coat with panko crumbs. Make sure that the fish is well coated but not over coated (shake well). Let rest for a 2-3 minutes before cooking.
• Cook the fish in the hot oil in small batches. This will keep the temperature high so you can cook the fish fast. Cook the fish for about 4-5 minutes until golden browned and crispy. Once cooked, place on paper towels and pat dry to drain any residual oil.
• Steam corn tortillas according to package instructions. You can also heat them on the stove.
• Serve tacos by placing some sauce in the bottom of a tortilla, add fish, and the cabbage. Garnish with a fresh lime wedge. I also like to add some fresh fruit salsa, like my Pineapple salsa with this recipe.

FISH TACOS WITH CREAMY CHIPOTLE SAUCE AND PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• For the tortillas: Brush a hot griddle with oil and heat the tortillas on each side to brown them up a bit. Wrap them in foil to keep hot until it's time to eat.
• For the fish: In a bowl, combine the chile powder, garlic salt, lime juice and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Toss the mixture with the fish in a shallow container and marinate for 15 minutes.
• For the chipotle sauce: In the meantime, combine the mayonnaise, cilantro, honey, chipotles, lime juice and salt in a food processor and blend until creamy and smooth. Transfer the sauce to a container (I like to store it in a squeeze bottle) and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Put the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and flake with a fork.
• To build each taco, spoon some fish onto 2 stacked tortillas (see Cook's Note). Top with some chipotle sauce, cabbage, cilantro and Pico de Gallo.
• In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.

CHICHARRONES FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Tartar Sauce:.
• Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Adjust the salt to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Tacos:.
• Rinse the fish under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut the fish into 1 inch cubes and put in a large bowl. Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt and pepper and turn the fish carefully to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 20 minutes or up to 4 hours.
• Put the flour on a plaate and toss the fish pieces in it a few at a time, until they are all evenly coated.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F. Carefully add a few pieces of the fish at a time, shaking off any excess flour before placing them into the oil. Fry until the fish pieces are golden brown all over, about 4-6 minutes. Then transfer them to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
• Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tortilla and warm for 10-15 seconds. Flip the tortilla and warm until it is pliant and heated through, another 10-20 seconds. Place on a plate and cover with a towel to keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
• Spread a dollop of the chipotle tartar sauce onto a warmed tortilla. Add a few strips of cucumber and top with 3 or 4 pieces of fish. Cover with a few arugula leaves and cilantro leaves and a sprinkling of the orange zest. Serve with more chipotle tartar sauce and the lime wedges on the side. Enjoy!

BAJA CHIPOTLE FISH TACOS

Steps:

• Place fish in a large baking dish or resealable plastic bag, pour 3/4 cup Lawry's Baja (r) Chipotle Marinade with Lime Juice over the fish.
• Marinate in refrigerator about 30 minutes in covered dish or sealed plastic bag.
• Remove fish from dish or bag and discard marinade.
• Grill or broil fish and baste with 1/4 cup Baja Chipotle Marinade. Turn fish once and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• While fish is cooking, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and remaining 2-4 tablespoons of marinade in a small bowl.
• To serve place fish in tortillas, using two tortillas for each taco, top with shredded cabbage and drizzle with sauce.

GRILLED FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE CREMA

Steps:

• Make the chipotle crema: In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise and sour cream until combined. Squeeze in lime juice, to taste, and whisk. Add salt, pepper and chipotle, to taste.
• Make the tacos: Heat a large skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, pour a few tablespoons of oil in a small bowl. Separate the corn tortillas from each other but keep them in a stack then run the outer edges through the oil. Add a few tortillas at a time to the dry skillet and heat until soft and hot, about 30 seconds per side. Wrap the tortillas in a clean, dry kitchen towel or place in a tortilla warmer, to keep warm.
• Heat a grill pan or grill over high heat for at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, slice the fish fillets into 1-by-2-inch strips. Pat dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and a pinch of pepper.
• Wipe the grill pan or grill grates with a lightly oiled towel right before cooking to remove any char and debris. (This will give you great grill marks and help the fish from sticking.) Working in batches, cook the fish strips in a single layer just until they are opaque and flake in the middle (making sure not to overcook them), about 2 minutes per side.
• Top each tortilla with 3 fish strips, a pinch of the cabbage and a drizzle of the crema. Serve right away with lime wedges and pico de gallo or hot sauce on the side.

CAJUN CATFISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• TO MARINATE THE FISH: Pat the fillets dry and spread them in 1 layer on a rimmed 13 by 18-inch baking sheet. (They can be close together, even touching, but not overlapping.) Liberally sprinkle Cajun seasoning on both sides of the fillets. Puree the chipotle peppers (minus the 2 reserved chiles) and their sauce in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Add the lemon juice and olive oil and pulse a few times until the mixture is combined. Pour the mixture over the seasoned catfish. Cover the fish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake until the fish begins to flake when pulled apart with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Keep warm.
• TO MAKE THE CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE: Whirl the mayonnaise, reserved 2 chipotle chiles, lime juice, Creole mustard, and salt in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade until blended. Scrape into a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• TO SERVE: Use a spatula to cut the fish into manageable portions and leave them on the baking sheet so guests can serve themselves. Set out the warm tortillas, sliced cabbage, chipotle mayo, and lime wedges, allowing guests to custom-build their own tacos. Have the salad on the table to serve with the tacos.
• Cucumber-Tomato- Avocado Salad
• Place the cucumber, tomatoes, and avocados in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, salt, freshly ground pepper to taste, and olive oil. Add the dressing to the vegetables and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
• do it early
• As long as the chipotle mayo is prepared with commercially made mayonnaise, it will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
