Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound white fish fillets (cod, mahi-mahi, snapper)
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons oregano
  • 2 tablespoons thyme
  • 2 tablespoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons pepper
  • 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • Shredded cabbage or lettuce
  • Diced avocado
  • Pico de gallo
  • Pickled onions
  • Corn
  • Black beans
  • Jalapeños (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil

Instructions

  • Prepare the blackening seasoning by combining paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and generously coat them with the blackening seasoning.
  • Heat olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet over high heat.
  • Carefully place the seasoned fish fillets in the hot skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Work in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The blackening seasoning should form a dark, slightly charred crust.
  • Remove the fish from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before flaking it with a fork.
  • While the fish is cooking, prepare the cilantro lime sauce by combining sour cream (or Greek yogurt), mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir well to combine.
  • Assemble the taco bowls by placing cooked rice in the bottom of each bowl.
  • Top with flaked blackened fish, shredded cabbage or lettuce, diced avocado, pico de gallo, pickled onions, corn, black beans, and jalapeños (if using).
  • Drizzle generously with cilantro lime sauce.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
