BLACKENED FISH TACOS RECIPES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, onion powder, cumin, salt, brown sugar and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle the mixture as evenly as possible over both sides of the fish fillets.
• Combine all of the Avocado-Cilantro Sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender. Pulse until well-combined; set aside.
• Combine all of the Slaw ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, add in the fillets (a few at a time if you can't fit them all at once). Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the outside is blackened and the fish flakes apart easily. Note: try not to move them around so as to achieve a blackening affect. Too much movement, also, encourages the spice mixture to stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Remove the fish from the heat, and if desired, warm the tortillas in the same skillet over medium heat, cooking for about 30 seconds on each side.
• Break up the cooked fillets into 2-3" pieces. Distribute the fish evenly between the tortillas and top with Slaw and Avocado-Cilantro Sauce. You may garnish with additional fresh cilantro leaves and/or jalapeno, if desired.

Steps:

• Slice top and bottom ends off oranges; cut off peel and white pith, following the shape of the fruit. Cut orange segments from membrane to remove and roughly chop. Place in a medium bowl. Discard peel, pith and membrane. Stir in onion, cilantro, chile, salt and 1 tablespoon lime juice.
• Sprinkle both sides of snapper evenly with Cajun seasoning. Heat oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the snapper; cook until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and flake into large pieces using 2 forks. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice.
• Divide the snapper and cabbage evenly among warm tortillas. Top with the orange salsa. Garnish with additional cilantro, if desired.
