1
Prepare the Fish
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Coat tilapia fillets with blackening seasoning on both sides. Once the skillet is hot, add a small amount of oil and cook the tilapia for about 3-4 minutes on each side until blackened and cooked through.
2
Prepare the Toppings
While the fish is cooking, chop the red onion and fresh tomato. Shred the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
3
Assemble the Tacos
Once the tilapia is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Flake the fish into bite-sized pieces. To assemble, place some flaked fish in each taco shell, top with red onion, tomato, and lettuce.
4
Serve
Drizzle chipotle aioli over the assembled tacos. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side if desired.
