Imagine a delicious combination of blackened white fish, corn and black bean salsa, and a dollop of cilantro avocado crema on top – all in just 30 minutes.
First, let’s talk about the star of the show: the blackened fish. You’ll need to prep the fish by seasoning it with a blend of spices that will make your taste buds dance. Don’t worry, it’s easy peasy. Simply mix together some paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, and sprinkle it evenly over both sides of the fish. Then, heat up a skillet with some oil and sear the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it’s cooked through.
While the fish is cooking, let’s work on the corn salsa. This is where things get really exciting. You’ll need to chop up some fresh corn, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Yes, it’s a lot of chopping, but trust us, it’s worth it. Simply combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. You can also add some diced jalapeños if you like a little heat.
Now, let’s talk about the crema. This is the icing on the cake, or should we say, the dollop on the fish. You’ll need to combine some sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and diced avocado in a bowl. Mix well until it’s smooth and creamy. You can also add some diced jalapeños if you like a little heat.
Now that we have all the components ready, it’s time to assemble the bowls. Simply place a piece of the blackened fish on the bottom of a bowl, followed by a spoonful of the corn salsa, and a dollop of the crema on top. You can also add some diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and diced avocado if you like.
And that’s it. These Blackened Fish Taco Bowls are a delicious and easy dinner idea that’s perfect for any night of the week. The best part is that you can customize it to your liking, so don’t be afraid to get creative and add your favorite toppings.
