This colorful, healthy dinner is easy to put together, even on a busy night. Fish Taco Bowls are a lot of fun to make and customize!
Hi everyone! It’s Jenna from A Savory Feast. Today I’m sharing my Fish Taco Bowls recipe. It’s a lighter alternative to the classic fish tacos, but still 100% delicious!
This recipe came about when I had a craving for fish tacos the other day. My fiancé and I don’t eat a lot of flour, so we generally avoid tortillas. I decided to try putting my favorite fish taco ingredients in a bowl with rice to get that fish taco flavor without the flour tortillas.
Here in Florida, the weather is finally starting to get nice enough to eat outside. This is the perfect dinner to enjoy on the deck with a margarita!
Meals like this are great for entertaining. You can set up a bar with the toppings and let your guests customize their fish taco bowls.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dried rice, cooked according to the directions on the package.
- 1 avocado
- 4 tablespoons vegenaise
- Juice of 1/2 lime (save the rest of the lime to garnish)
- Salt, pepper and garlic powder to season
- 4 pieces of tilapia
- 2 tablespoons oil (I used coconut)
- Salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder to season.
- 1 cup cabbage, shredded
- 1/2 cup tomato, diced
- 4 lime slices
Instructions
- Cook the rice according to the directions on the package. Divide among 4 bowls and set aside.
- Make the avocado sauce:
- In a bowl, mash the avocado. Add the vegenaise and mix until creamy. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet on high. Season the tilapia on both sides with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder.
- Brown the tilapia for 2 minutes on each side. Lower the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes or until cooked thoroughly. Divide among the 4 bowls.
- Top each bowl with cabbage, tomato and avocado sauce. Garnish with a lime slice.
