Chipotle Battered Fish Tacos


It has been rainy and cold and dreary here for the past few days so I whipped up this delicious summery treat to remind me of sunny days. It is absolutely delicious, from the spicy chipotle echoed in the batter and the dressing to the soft homemade tortillas to the refreshing salsa. 

What You'll Need:
(serves 2)
2 tilapia fillets (or other white fish)
3/4 cup flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 chipotle bullion cubes
3/4 cup water
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp olive oil 
avocado slices

What To Do:
Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets. Cut into strips. Prepare batter my mixing together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, salt and chipotle cubes. Slowly mix in water, careful to avoid any lumps. 

Heat butter and oil in skillet over medium heat. Dip fish strips into batter and carefully place in pan, cooking one minute or until brown on each side. Remove from pan and allow the fish to rest on paper towels to drain oil. 

Layer tacos with flour tortillas, fish, mango salsa, avocado slices and chipotle ranch. Enjoy!
