Salad Base

Fish

Dressing

Method

Prepare the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the red onion, and cube the avocado. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped romaine, cherry tomatoes, red onion, black beans, corn kernels, and diced avocado. Toss gently to mix.

  3. 3

    Add Cilantro

    Finely chop the cilantro and sprinkle it over the salad mixture. Toss again to distribute evenly.

Cook the Fish

  1. 4

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and add the fish fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 5

    Cook the Fish

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from skillet and let cool slightly.

  3. 6

    Flake the Fish

    Once cooled, flake the fish with a fork into bite-sized pieces.

Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, sour cream, chili powder, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt until smooth and well-combined.

    Top the salad base with the flaked fish and drizzle the dressing over the entire salad.
