These are pretty good and a different way to eat fried fish. We all especially liked the cilantro/sour cream sauce! I've prepared this two ways: First just as it's written. I found that if you're not using a deep fryer, the battered fish pieces don't fry as well. All of that batter makes for a really messy skillet! We liked the taste so well though, until I tried something different the second time. Here, I battered, then slightly refloured, and chilled the pieces in the fridge prior to frying. The fish turned out so much better and things weren't as messy. Also, we've used both flour and corn tortillas and like the flour ones better by far for this recipe...personal preference. Sorry this is so long, but we did enjoy it and I will prepare it again. Thanks for submitting.

These were excellent! I used the fresh sea bass my husband caught that day. For the batter I used half flour and half tempura mix and seasoned it with the taco seasoning as another reviewer had done. We loved the lime juice and cilantro in the sauce. Everything was superb! I used flour tortillas and added a bit of shredded cheese, which I know does not make it an authentic Baja fish taco, however that's what we prefer. So good we had them 2 nights in a row.

I used tempura batter mix instead of plain flour and seasoned it with the taco seasoning. I squeezed lime juice on the pieces of whiting fish then dipped them in the batter. I followed the recipe from there and my husband loved them more than i thought he would. Thanks for posting!!

These were delicious! I especially loved the cilantro-lime sour cream sauce. I also made salsa to go with them and shredded some romaine. The only problem I had was the beer batter was really thick so I just added more beer. Thanks for a great recipe!

Instead of using tomatoes and cabbage, substitute the tomatoes with a slice or two of avocado, and eat with a jalapeno. Simply great and delicious!!!!!

Good recipe...I grilled the fish instead of frying and heated my corn tortillas in oil on the skillet. Thanks!

Fish batter is very yummy! Great flavor. I will cut the amount of lime juice in the sauce next time...it was a little too much for my family's taste. I also used crunchy shells as we like those better for fish tacos!

make sure you use corn tortillas and cabbage... or else it wouldn't be a baja fish taco.
