Crispy baja fish tacos at home and even better!

PROTIP: I tried making the fish tacos again after filming and I found they turned out even more crispy when I first coated the fish in the seasoned flour mixture. Then I added the club soda to the dry ingredients to make a batter and dipped the floured fish in and fried! This ensured a more dry fish surface which made them even more crispy.

RECIPE:

Lime Crema
1/2 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
1/3 cup mayonnaise
juice of half a lime
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Chipotle Sauce
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
juice of 1 lime
1/2 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons adobo paste
chipotle peppers to taste pureed into a paste, to add spicyness

Fish and Batter
1 pound white fish, cut into 1 inch thick pieces
1 cup flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/4 cup club soda
vegetable oil, for frying
