Baja Shrimp Tacos

Step 1

If making coleslaw from scratch, we recommend making it at least an hour in advance to chill. If using store bought, proceed to next step.

In a medium sized bowl, mix flour, baking powder and seasonings until well combined. Gradually stir in beer.

Step 4

Add about 1/2 inch of oil to a skillet and preheat over medium high heat. Heat until instant read thermometer reads 350°F.
