Better late - than never / Monday Night Fish Tacos!

Last night was Fish Taco night. Let me tell you, there was not even a crumb left to scavange. I am guessing the tacos were a hit! 

INGREDIENTS: Tilapia Fillets, 2 eggs, 3 tbs milk, 2 cups Maseca, **2 tbs spice mix, 1 small onion, 2 jalapenos, 2 roma tomatos, corn tortillas, **special taco sauce.

 before starting the fillets it is best to get your breading station set up. in a large flat bowl, mix 2 eggs and 3 tbs milk well, (you can add some hot sauce to this if you want to kick it up!)

in a shallow cookie sheet or other container mix 2 cups Maseca with your 2 tbs spice mix (recipe below for my favorite one) if your spice mix does not contain salt add some to taste and some fresh cracked black pepper.

in your frying pan have about 2 cups of oil heating on med high heat. Take your fillets and dunk them in the egg mixture then into the Maseca mix. Shake off the excess and gently put them in the frying pan. continue until all fillets are all fried off. Let them drain on a cookie sheet lined with paper towels to soak up the excess oil. Prepare your corn tortillas, or flour if you prefer.


Chop the onion and the jalapeno and the tomatos for toppings on your fish tacos.
