Description

Blackened Fish Taco Bowls bring coastal flavors with crispy fish over zesty rice and fresh toppings.


Ingredients

  • 4 fillets of white fish (tilapia, cod, or mahi-mahi)
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower)
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce or cabbage
  • 1 cup black beans
  • 1 cup corn
  • 1 avocado
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice for the sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder for the sauce
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder for the sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon salt for the sauce


Instructions

  1. Make the spice blend. In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
  2. Prep the fish. Pat the fish dry with paper towels, then rub it with olive oil and the spice blend. Squeeze lime juice on top.
  3. Cook the fish. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes on each side until it’s nicely blackened.
  4. Prepare the sauce. In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt until smooth.
  5. Assemble your bowls. Start with a base of rice, add shredded lettuce or cabbage, black beans, and corn, then top with a blackened fish fillet.
  6. Finish with flair. Top with avocado slices, pico de gallo, cilantro, and drizzle with the creamy sauce.

Notes

Adjust the spice level by modifying the cayenne pepper to match your heat preference. You can also customize toppings for added flavor.
