Battered Fish Tacos

I found Panko Ginger fish & Chicken batter crumbs... perfect for this!

 Place fish in plastic bag and shake with portioned bread crumbs.. I used 2 lbs of Tilapia cut up into chunks..
Fry in 1/4 inch of Canola Oil
 crumble paper towel and let fish rest there when you take it out of the oil... (directions for this are all on back of the box)

 I just used Tortillas, coleslaw and I mixed sour cream with the juice of a can of Adobo peppers...




Battered Fish Tacos
