I love giving classic recipes a little twist, and these Beer Battered Hushpuppies are no exception. The taco seasoning and green chiles add a fun, flavorful kick that’s always a hit.

Ingredients
For the Hushpuppies
- 1 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1- ounce taco seasoning mix Old El Paso™ brand, packaged
- 1 4.5- ounce chopped green chilies drained, canned, Old El Paso™ brand
- 3/4 cup Mexican lager beer
- 2 large egg lightly beaten
- cooking oil for frying
For the Dipping Sauce
- 3 tablespoons pepper jelly jalapeño flavored
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and taco seasoning. Fold the chiles, beer, and eggs into the batter until just combined. Allow the batter to rest while heating 3 inches of cooking oil in a large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Working in batches, drop the batter into the heated oil by heaping tablespoons. Allow to fry for 2-3 minutes, turning once, until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a metal rack set over paper towels.
- Prepare the dipping sauce by whisking the pepper jelly, mayonnaise, and yogurt together in a small bowl. Serve with warm hushpuppies.
Notes
- Today’s recipe is sponsored by the wonderful people over at Old El Paso™.
- Use a cookie scoop (small ice cream scoop) to form the perfect hushpuppies. Be sure to taste the first fried hushpuppy to ensure it is cooked through and salted to your liking.
- To store Beer Battered Hushpuppies, place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
- To reheat, place them on a baking sheet in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes until crispy and heated through. Avoid microwaving, as it can make them soggy. If reheating from frozen, add a few extra minutes to the oven time.
