Beer-Battered Fish Tacos

Taco Cabana's New Fish Tacos are Made with Beer-Battered Icelandic Cod

Following in the footsteps of other QSRs, Taco Cabana is adding new Fish Tacos made with beer-battered Icelandic cod for the Lenten season.

Launching just in time for the Lenten season, Taco Caban is introducing new Fish Tacos, Chilaquiles Bowls, and a Margarita made with Big Red. The Fish Tacos are a cravable new option made with wild-caught, beer-battered Icelandic cod paired with creamy pepper-limón sauce, shredded lettuce, and pico de gallo. The tacos are available on their own, as a taco plate, or as a taco combo. On the other hand, the new Chilaquiles Bowls combine crispy tortilla strips with scrambled eggs and your choice of ranchero or green sauces. Each bowl is then topped off with sour cream and a sprinkle of cotija cheese.
