Description

Delicious Blackened Fish Tacos featuring flaky fish, crunchy cabbage slaw, creamy avocado, and zesty pico de gallo.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 fish fillets (tilapia, cod, or any white fish of your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 cup pico de gallo
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat for at least 5 minutes.
  2. Season the fish fillets generously with the blackening seasoning on both sides.
  3. Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Prepare the slaw: In a mixing bowl, toss the shredded cabbage with lime juice, salt, and pepper.
  5. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds per side.
  6. Assemble each taco with blackened fish, cabbage slaw, pico de gallo, avocado slices, and sour cream.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges.

Notes

For a healthier option, try cooking the fish in an air fryer. Prepare the cabbage slaw a day in advance for the best flavor.
