Blackened Fish Taco Bowls With Cilantro Lime Sauce: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 4 minute

Ingredients

– 1 lb white fish fillets (such as tilapia or mahi-mahi)
– 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 cup cooked brown rice or quinoa
– 1 cup shredded cabbage (green or purple)
– 1 ripe avocado, sliced
– ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
– Lime wedges for serving


Instructions

Creating Blackened Fish Taco Bowls is a breeze. Follow these easy steps for a delicious result:

1. Prepare the Cilantro Lime Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, cilantro, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. Set aside.

2. Season the Fish: Rub the blackening seasoning evenly over both sides of the fish fillets to ensure maximum flavor.

3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the fish to achieve a good sear.

4. Cook the Fish: Place the seasoned fish fillets in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and blackened. Fish should flake easily with a fork when done.

5. Prepare the Bowl Base: While the fish is cooking, divide the cooked brown rice or quinoa among serving bowls.

6. Add the Toppings: Once the fish is cooked, slice it into bite-sized pieces and distribute it over the rice or quinoa. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and cherry tomato halves.

7. Drizzle with Sauce: Generously drizzle the prepared cilantro lime sauce over each bowl, adding extra freshness.

8. Garnish: Finish with fresh cilantro leaves and a squeeze of lime juice for added zest.

9. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Blackened Fish Taco Bowls warm, allowing everyone to mix and match toppings according to their preferences.
