We used to go to restaurant downtown to have fish taco for me and they have the tamales . After moving away from downtown , we barely made a trip there anymore since none of my husband and my son were big fans of fish tacos , it was only me . So , the venture began , to create a yummy fish tacos , since there was nothing to it . It is mainly battered fish being deep fried , just like making fish and chips . And the main thing was in the sauce , and salsa on a bed of cabbage .Just so you know , when they took a bite of these fish tacos , their eye were so big and they said &#8221; THIS IS DELICIOUS !! &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So here is the fish tacos recipe that i found online with here and there adjustment to my preference . The fish though , it&#8217;s really up to you , whether you make it with panko bread crumbs like i did , or you can use beer batter that i used for fish and chips recipe , it shouldn&#8217;t matter that much . Make sure you get good fish , i prefer something else other than Tilapia . I usually prefer cod fish , or halibut , but last night i used Mahi Mahi .And to make your job a lot easier , do the sauce and salsa ahead , whether in the morning or the day before , it makes it a lot quicker to fix dinner .<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/fish-tacos.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2651\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/fish-tacos-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"fish tacos\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/fish-tacos-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/fish-tacos.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Direction :\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For fish :<\/p>\n<p>1.5 lbs of mahi mahi or white fillet fish such as cod<\/p>\n<p>1.5 cups of all purpose flour<\/p>\n<p>2 eggs , beaten<\/p>\n<p>1.5 cups of panko bread crumbs<\/p>\n<p>1.
