Like the Queen, those wizard books, and red double-decker buses, fish and chips are an English staple and tradition. But unlike a few other English culinary staples and traditions, fish and chips are yummy and delicious. (Let’s not discuss steak and kidney pie.) Here, we’ve added a slight American twist to tradition, with feisty chipotle ranch dressing up the slaw. But same classic crunch to the fish, same fries, even tartar sauce for dipping. Rule Britannia!

2 Heat Oil and Coat Tilapia
Pat tilapia dry and cut into 2" pieces.
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add canola oil. Let heat, 5 minutes.While canola oil heats, combine tempura mix and 1/4 cup water in a mixing bowl until a thick batter forms. Add tilapia and gently stir until coated completely. -

Line a plate with a paper towel.
Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of batter to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.Working in batches if necessary, lay tilapia in hot oil and cook until crispy, golden brown, and tilapia reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.Transfer cooked tilapia to towel-lined plate. -
