Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup of your favorite beer

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until well combined. Slowly pour in the beer, whisking constantly, until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should be thick enough to coat the fish, but not too thick that it is clumpy.
  • Once you have your batter prepared, it is time to prepare the fish. Cut your fish fillets into pieces that are approximately 2 inches wide and 4 inches long.
  • You want the pieces to be small enough to fit into a taco shell, but not too small that they are difficult to handle. Pat the fish dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
  • Now it is time to coat the fish in the batter. Heat a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Using tongs, dip each piece of fish into the batter, making sure to coat it evenly on all sides.
  • Gently place the coated fish into the hot oil and fry until it is golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fish from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil.
