Description

Delicious and easy-to-make Blackened Fish Tacos, perfect for bringing beach vibes home.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 fish fillets (such as tilapia or snapper)
  • 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your skillet: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the fish: Rub the fish fillets with blackening seasoning, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Sear the fish: Add the olive oil to the skillet. Sear the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  4. Flake the fish: Remove it from the heat and flake the fish into pieces with a fork.
  5. Warm the tortillas: In the same skillet, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side.
  6. Assemble the tacos: Lay the flaked fish on the tortillas and top with shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, and chopped cilantro.
  7. Serve with lime: Add lime wedges on the side.

Notes

Don’t skip warming the tortillas for better texture. Let the fish rest briefly before flaking for juiciness.
