Description

A vibrant and flavorful dish featuring blackened fish, fresh vegetables, and a zesty lime accent.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb white fish fillets (such as tilapia or cod)
  • 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Rub the fish fillets with olive oil and blackening seasoning.
  3. Place the fish in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and blackened.
  4. Remove the fish from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before flaking it into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In serving bowls, layer the cooked rice or quinoa, followed by the shredded cabbage, blackened fish, avocado, tomatoes, and cilantro.
  6. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the bowls.

Notes

Allow the fish to rest after cooking for better tenderness. Customize toppings as desired.
