BLACKENED FISH TACOS

with a creamy avocado lime sauce. watch full video here

We have been making this exact recipe for YEARS! It is truly the most perfect fish taco for summer. Tons of seasoning to create this “blackened” crust so it lacks no flavor. The avocado sauce is so delicious you’ll be hoping there’s more left to add onto the next days dinner.

You can top these with whatever you like. I stick with cabbage, red onions, fresh cilantro, and EXTRA avocado lime sauce.
