This is a combination of the best ingredients from different fish tacos I have tried. The amounts below are approximate. I exaggerate all.
Ingredients:
1 -1 1/2 lb halibut
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
4 ounces green cabbage (shredded)
4 ounces red cabbage (shredded)
1/4 cup red onion (julienned)
3/4 cup ranch dressing (bottled, package, homemade )
1/4 cup mayonnaise (i used light)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dill weed
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons lime juice
hot sauce (i use a lot, i like it spicy)
1 1/2 tablespoons jalapenos (minced)
12 corn tortillas
Directions:
1. For breading - In a pie plate mix cornmeal, flour, salt and pepper, garlic powder and chili powder.
2. In a small bowl mix cabbages and red onion. Set aside.
3. For sauce - In another small bowl (I like to use a pourable measuring cup) mix the Ranch, mayo, garlic powder, cumin, dill, pepper, lime juice, hot sauce and jalapeno.
4. Cut fish into small slices. Roll in breading.
5. Warm a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.
6. Coat the pan with cooking oil.
7. Fry fish pieces until lightly brown on all sides about 4-5 min being careful to not break up the pieces when turning.
8. To serve- put fish in warmed corn tortillas (I warm mine until slightly crispy on a cast iron pan), spoon some of the sauce over it and top with cabbage mixture. Enjoy!
