    Amazing!!! We had wahoo fresh off the boat and this recipe was delicious. The fish was so moist! Easy for a first time beer batterer. We also made a chipotle in adobo crema in addition to the lime. Will be my go to recipe!

    Had a pound and a half of fresh grouper. Looked for a beer batter recipe and found this. This batter is the bomb!!! Used my porcelain dutch oven 1-1/2" of peanut oil Cut the fish into 1" x 2" strips dunked them in the batter fried for 4-5 mins. Wow..also fried up some sweet potato strips...nice combo...fresh cole slaw on the side....Cold beer now that's Friday night living. Thanks for the recipe CHEF CHIARELLO.

    This is just delicious. I didn't have cod so I used tilapia and it tasted great! I even battered some asparagus, fried them up and they were scrumptious too!

    Made this recipe for fish tacos and everyone loved them! This is definately a keeper. The fish, I used Cod, was light and crispy with just the right amount of heat. The cilantro lime sour cream is perfect with the spicy fish. Delightful!!!

    These are incredible. The batter is light and crispy with a lot of flavor. You could even add a little extra chipotle if you like your food spicier. Although they are fried, this is a meal that feels light and is great for a summer day!

    Takes some time but very much worth it. Make everything in the recipe. The cole slaw and the sour cream with cilantro and lime are wonderful and can be made in advance. I used cod and it was better than any fried fish I have had in a restaurant. My boyfriend was very against the idea of fish tacos but has converted because these are perfect!

    AMAZING! Takes some prep time for a weekday meal, but the fish cooks fast and is DELICIOUS! I would probably add one more chipotle next time, but otherwise, perfect. My family gobbled it up. I liked it better without the sour cream mix. One note: Thought it might be easier to cook in the deep fryer, so I tried. It was mushy and the fish didn't hold the batter. Reverted to oil in the pan and it cooked up beautifully.

    Although it has a lot of components. This dish was amazing. The chipoltes really make the difference. I will keep making this for a long time!
