For the Fish

Method
 

Cooking the Fish
  1. Season the fish fillets with taco seasoning.
  2. Cook the fish in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Preparing Toppings
  1. While the fish is cooking, prepare the pico de gallo and slice the avocado.
Assembling the Bowls
  1. Once the fish is done, assemble the bowls by adding a base of rice or quinoa.
  2. Layer the cooked fish, sliced avocado, and pico de gallo on top.
  3. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and drizzle with your favorite sauce.
  4. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

For the best flavor, let the fish marinate in taco seasoning for at least 30 minutes before cooking. You can swap fish for shrimp or chicken for different protein experiences. Make it spicier by adding diced jalapeƱos to pico de gallo.
