Fish Tacos with Blackened Mahi Mahi

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs mahi mahi fillets
• 2 tbsp blackening seasoning
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cups shredded cabbage
• 2 tbsp lime juice
• 2 tbsp dairy-free mayo
• 8 corn tortillas
• fresh cilantro

Method

1. 1

   Coat the mahi mahi fillets evenly with blackening seasoning.

2. 2

   Heat a cast iron or heavy skillet over high heat until it's fully hot, almost smoking, before adding the oil and fish — this fully preheated pan is what actually chars the blackening spice into a real crust; a lukewarm pan just steams the seasoning off instead of searing it on.

3. 3

   Sear the fish 3-4 minutes per side until blackened and cooked through, then flake into large pieces.

4. 4

   Toss shredded cabbage with lime juice and dairy-free mayo for the slaw.

5. 5

   Warm corn tortillas, fill with flaked fish and slaw, and garnish with cilantro.
