Fish Tacos

Rice & Cheese Beans

Method

Fish Tacos

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the fish fillets and coat them evenly. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Fish

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and flaky. Remove from heat and break into pieces.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet. On each tortilla, layer the cooked fish, shredded cabbage, sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a drizzle of sour cream.

Rice & Cheese Beans

  1. 4

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of long-grain rice and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Beans

    In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the rinsed black beans, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Cook while stirring for 5-7 minutes, until heated through.

  3. 6

    Combine Rice and Beans

    Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and mix it with the prepared beans. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted and well combined.
