Fish Taco with Southwestern Salad
If you’re looking for quick & easy fish tacos, this is the recipe for you! The cod fillets are crispy on the outside & moist on the inside, the pico de gallo salsa is fresh & flavorful, and the Southwestern Chopped Salad Kit is the secret ingredient that brings it all together with very little effort.
Makes 2 servings
All ingredients purchased @ Trader Joe's
Ingredients:
-
2 Oven Ready Breaded Cod Fillets
-
1 pack Southwestern Chopped Salad Kit
-
2 corn tortillas
-
½ cup Pico De Gallo Salsa (mild or hot)
-
1 avocado, diced
Directions:
-
Cook the cod fillets according to package instructions. When done, cut into small pieces.
-
While fish cooks, open the salad kit and remove the small packets. Pour the salad, cheese, pepita & tortillas strips and half the dressing into a large bowl and toss well. (Save the remainder of the dressing for a future salad.)
-
Heat the tortillas on a stovetop, microwave, or toaster oven.
-
On each tortilla, place two tablespoons salad, the pieces of ½ fillet, two tablespoons pico de gallo, and ¼ avocado. Place one taco on each plate.
-
Add the remainder of the fish, pico de gallo, and avocado to the salad. Toss well and then pour half onto each plate to enjoy as a side salad with the taco.
- If cooking for just yourself: We like the “cook once, eat twice” method! Enjoy one serving today and the second serving tomorrow. (In that case, cook the 2nd cod fillet on Day 2 and save half the pepita & tortillas strips to add just before eating.)
