Preparation

  1. Step 1 Make the tartar sauce

    Add all tartar sauce ingredients to a bowl then mix until well combined. Refrigerate until needed.

  2. Step 2 Cook the fish

    Preheat the fryer oil to 350 F. Fry for 5 – 7 minutes or until the fish is golden brown. Shake baskets occasionally to prevent fillets from sticking to basket.

  3. Step 3 Assemble the tacos

    Heat flat top or cast iron skillet on high temp. Heat flour tortillas for about 15 seconds per side. Top each tortilla with ½ slice of American cheese, pollock fillet, tartar sauce, diced onions, and shredded lettuce. Serve with a lemon wedge.
