How Do You Prepare Fish For Fish Tacos?
• Select the type of fish you prefer to use for your fish tacos. A fish that is firm when cooked works best. • Some of the best varieties for fish tacos include swordfish, halibut, sea bass snapper, cod and shark because they retain a dense, firm texture when prepared. • You will also need an oil such as olive or canola and herbs and spices of your choice. • Gather other ingredients you will need to prepare fish for tacos. Using a marinade such as lime or lemon juice is optional but adds extra flavor. Flour and corn meal for batter are also optional. • Cut your fish into chunks using a sharp knife. • Dip the fish chunks into a bowl of water and allow them to soak for a few minutes. • If you prefer, you can soak them in a marinade instead for 5 to 10 minutes. • Dry the chunks of fish gently by dabbing them with paper towel. This will help prevent splattering when you place them in the hot oil in the skillet. • Put a few spoonfuls of oil in a skillet on medium heat on your stove. • Roll
