Beer Battered Fish Tacos with Avocado Jalapeño Sauce

Beer Battered Fish Tacos with Avocado Jalapeño Sauce-2

Growing on the shoreline of Connecticut meant a lot of things but one of my favorite things is having access to really great seafood! When I was a kid, I didn’t eat a lot of seafood but as I’ve grown I’ve learned to appreciate it more and more. I know fish tacos are a California speciality for the most part but if you’re like me and can’t hop a plane at will, this recipe is a great option. The fish gets nice and crispy and the sauce gives it an awesome pop of tang!
