Ingredients:

• 1 lb rockfish fillets

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 8 small flour or corn tortillas

For the slaw:

• 2 cups shredded cabbage

• ¼ cup mayo

• Juice of 1 lime

• 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

• Salt to taste

For topping:

• Diced avocado, pico de gallo, or a drizzle of chipotle mayo

Directions:

1. Mix slaw ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

2. Rub the fish with olive oil and blackening seasoning.

3. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook fish for about 3–4 minutes per side, until blackened and flaky.

Flavor Tip: Add a squeeze of fresh lime and a pinch of sea salt right before serving — it makes the flavors pop.
