From the Sunset Mexican cookbook. Not the most authentic cookbook, but not too bad, either.
Prepare Tomatillo Salsa; cover and refrigeratoe.
In a 10 to 12 inch frying pan, combine lemon juice, chile, cilantro, and broth. Bring to a boil over high heat. Arrange fillets in broth, overlapping if necessary. Return broth to boiling; reduce heat, cover and simmer until fish looks slightly translucent (about 10 minutes). Drain well; break into 1 inch chunks and keep warm.
Pour oil to a depth of 1/2 inch into a wide frying pan and heat to 350F. When oil is hot, add a tortilla and cook until soft (about 10 seconds). Using tongs, fold in half; hold slightly open and continue to cook, turning once, until crisp (about 1 more minute). Repeat for remaining tortillas, adding more oil if necessary. Drain on paper towels.
To assemble each taco, place a taco shell on a plate; spoon chunks of fish into tortilla and add salsa, lettuce and sour cream, dividing equally.
Tomatillo Salsa: Rinse tomatillos; arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in a 500F oven until slightly singed (about 15 minutes). Let cool. In a blender or food processor, whirl tomatillos with cilantro and chile. Stir in broth and lime juice; seaon to taste with salt, if desired.
