what's for dinner wednesdays - beer battered fish tacos

fish tacos are popular fare here in southern california and it's a nice change from chicken and beef sometimes.  we generally make grilled fish but justin wanted to try something new so he found a recipe for beer batter and made a delicious dinner.  and since he made dinner, i don't have step-by-step pictures or directions but i can still give you the general idea!
 
first off, choose your fish.  we used ono this time but virtually any white fish is good.  the second big thing is tortillas.  i am a flour tortilla person and he is a corn tortilla man through and through.  so we had both.  for our sides we had black beans and coconut rice.  COCONUT RICE!  it's so rich and delicious and EASY to make.  just substitute coconut milk for water.  (depending on how much rice you're making, add more water if necessary).  it smells incredible when it's cooking and has a light flavor.  yum...

justin also found a perfect dill sauce for the fish.  and then my only other recommendation is to use cabbage instead of lettuce for your fillings, in addition to whatever else you like.  we had red cabbage, cheese, avocado, and cilantro. 

that husband of mine's a mighty fine chef!  click here for the recipe he used for the beer batter and the baja sauce.
