Kfft

[JimK]

Been a while since I've posted a meal, but I've been grilling. Mostly run of the mill stuff, so I didn't want to bore you.

KFFT = Kettle Fried Fish Taco. I was hoping to do this for the fish throw down, but just ran out of time.

Wild caught cod filets on sale? I'm in!

Here's the coating: Panko, S&P, cumin, chili powder and cayenne.

I cut the cod into bite sized pieces and gave them a light coat of canola oil before breading them. Here they are all skewered up:

Then, it was onto the grill using what I now officially call the Correll Cradle:

After the first minute or two, I threw on some peppers right outta the garden:

Made a sauce from mayo, lime juice, cilantro, S&P, red wine vinegar, a pinch of sugar, and cumin. Then plated it all up on some corn tortillas with cilantro and red cabbage.

Hope your weekend is off to a great start.

Colorful and tasty looking stuff Jim!
Nice photos too!
I've wanted to try making Kettle Fried Fish, now I know it can be done, was worried it would get over-cooked before getting crispy.

To answer your question on my post, without bumping it,
the Michelob Cider is pretty good, a bit sweet, but a dash of cinnamon bourbon makes it right!

Terrific looking fish tacos! Beautiful plated pic as well!

Beautiful Jim. I nearly picked some of those sweet peppers, but since the veggies in our garden are finally coming in, I'm under strict orders not to buy any produce until autumn.
Just beautiful...

That's a fantastic plated pic! Kettle fried fish just proves that the sky is the limit. I'm waiting for the day I see kettle fried ice cream.

Thanks everyone!

Bob: it certainly wasn't the crispest fish I've had, but the breading does add nice texture.
