Description

Indulge in flavorful blackened fish tacos, featuring smoky fish, crunchy cabbage, and vibrant pico de gallo, all wrapped in warm corn tortillas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 fish fillets (tilapia, cod, or any white fish of your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 2 cups cabbage, shredded
  • 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 blackening seasoning.
  3. Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes on each side until it flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Prepare the slaw by mixing shredded cabbage with lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  5. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat, about 30 seconds per side.
  6. Assemble each taco by placing a piece of blackened fish on the tortilla, followed by cabbage slaw, pico de gallo, avocado slices, and a drizzle of sour cream.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges for an extra touch.

Notes

Make-ahead Tip: Prepare the slaw and pico de gallo a day ahead for deeper flavors. Customize with additional toppings like pickled onions or cilantro.
