Fried Fish Tacos To Remind You Of Baja California
- 1 onion, cut into thin slices
- 2 teaspoons salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 4 limes, divided
- water to cover
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 quart canola oil for frying
- 18 corn tortillas
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle dark beer
- 1 1/4 pounds whitefish, cut into 3x1-inch strips
- 1 egg
- 1/3 head cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 cup pico de gallo salsa
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Place onion in resealable plastic bag with 1 teaspoon salt, basil, and oregano. Squeeze in juice from 1 1/2 limes. Add enough water to help spread marinade all over the onion slices. Seal and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
- Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and the juice of 1 lime in a bowl. Mix, adding more lime juice as needed, until the white sauce is runny. Cut the remaining limes into wedges.
- Heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a deep pot over medium heat.
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Place tortillas in oven to keep warm.
- Whisk flour, beer, and egg together in a medium bowl until texture resembles pancake batter. Dip 3 to 4 pieces of fish into the mixture and fry in the hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining fish.
- Place fried fish over warmed tortillas, topped with the marinated onions, white sauce, lime wedges, cabbage, pico de gallo, and cilantro.
