Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

Pickled Red Onion:
1 large red onion, halved lengthways, thinly sliced
2 small green jalapeños
2/3 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 heaped teaspoon sea salt
Baja Cream:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons lime juice, plus extra to taste
1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
Pinch of sea salt
Baja Cabbage Slaw:
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
3/4 teaspoon lime juice
2 drops jalapeño Tabasco sauce
1/2 small head green cabbage, thinly sliced
Sea salt and ground black pepper
Marinated Fish:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, or to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1 green jalapeño, chopped
1 lb flaky white fish filets
Sea salt and ground black pepper
Corn tortillas, for serving

Steps:

  • Pickled Red Onion:
  • To make the pickled red onion, place the onion and jalapeño in a heatproof medium bowl. In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, lime juice and salt. Bring to the boil over high heat, stirring until the salt dissolves, then pour over the onion and jalapeño. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour before using. (Leftovers will keep up to 1 week in the fridge.)
  • Baja Cream:
  • To make the Baja cream, whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, lime zest and salt in a small bowl, then taste for seasoning and lime juice.
  • Baja Cabbage Slaw:
  • To make the cabbage slaw, mix together the mayonnaise, lime juice and Tabasco in a bowl. Toss the cabbage with the mayonnaise mixture, season to taste and refrigerate.
  • Marinated Fish:
  • To marinate the fish, mix the olive oil, chili powder, oregano, cumin, coriander and jalapeño in a non-reactive dish. Add the fish and marinate for 20 minutes.
  • When ready to cook the fish, heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade, place in the hot pan and season with salt.
  • Cook the fish for 4 minutes, then turn over, season again with salt and cook for another 2 minutes or until just cooked through, depending on the thickness.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and flake the fish with a fork, scraping up and mixing in any marinade that has stuck to the bottom.
  • Assembly:
  • Heat the tortillas according to the directions on the packet. To assemble the tacos, place a heaped spoon of the fish onto the centre of a warm tortilla. Top with the pickled onion and jalapeño, Baja cream, Baja cabbage slaw and tomato salsa.

RUBIOS FISH TACO RECIPE RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Rubios Fish Taco Recipe Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by Treebs

Number Of Ingredients 22

12 sticks of fish - prepared as above
12 corn tortillas
oil for deep frying
Batter
1 cup flour
1 cup beer
1 tspn garlic powder
few twists pepper
Sauce
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup plain yoghurt
Salsa
1 garlic clove - peeled and finely chopped
6 ripe tomatoes - diced finely
Small red onion - peeled and diced
2 tablespoon cilantro leaves - chopped finely
2 jalapeno chillies - seeded and chopped finely
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Salad
Finely shredded hard cabbage
limes - cut into wedges - you'll need 12 pieces

Steps:

  • First make your batter - whisk the ingredients together until they're well blended and then beat a little longer to make the batter full of air bubbles 'airy'. Set aside for an hour. Mix the sauce ingredients together and put into the fridge. Mix the salsa ingredients together - if you can't get cilantro leaves, use fresh chopped parsley, coriander, chives or similar to your taste - I used shredded basil leaves. Have everything ready to assemble before you cook the fish. Before you start cooking, give the batter another whisk - this will make it airy again - vital for crispy batter.
