  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 0 hours

Ingredients

– 2 (6-ounce) fish fillets (tilapia, salmon, or your choice)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 tablespoon lime juice
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 avocado, diced
– 1 medium tomato, diced
– ¼ red onion, finely chopped
– 1 small jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
– Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
– Extra lime wedges for serving


Instructions

Preparing Fajita Fish with Avocado Salsa is a breeze when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Marinade the Fish: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the fish fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate for 15 minutes.

2. Prepare the Salsa: While the fish marinates, combine diced avocado, tomato, red onion, and jalapeño in a separate bowl. Add a pinch of salt and squeeze additional lime juice over the mixture. Gently toss to combine and set aside.

3. Cook the Fish: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated fish fillets. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

4. Serve the Dish: Transfer the cooked fish to a serving platter or individual plates. Top with the avocado salsa and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

5. Garnish: Serve with lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
