Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 frozen cod fillets
  • 2 cups Pineapple Lime Cauliflower Rice
  • 2 cups Sweet and Spicy Coleslaw

Cod Seasoning & Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • ¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1½ teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • Pinch of salt

Topping & Garnish

  • 1 sliced avocado
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare the Fish: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and taco seasoning. Brush this mixture evenly over the frozen cod fillets to coat them with flavor.
  3. Bake the Fish: Place the seasoned cod fillets on the lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Make the Honey Lime Crema: While the fish is baking, whisk together sour cream (or Greek yogurt), lime juice, honey, milk, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until smooth. Refrigerate the sauce until ready to serve.
  5. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the pineapple lime cauliflower rice and sweet and spicy coleslaw evenly among four serving bowls.
  6. Add Fish and Toppings: Once the fish is cooked, place one cod fillet into each bowl. Add sliced avocado and drizzle the honey lime crema over the top. Garnish with chopped cilantro for a fresh finish.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately while the fish is warm and enjoy your healthy, flavorful low-carb fish taco bowls.
