I love the easy prep of bowl meals. To make this quick blackened fish burrito bowls recipe even faster and easier, I used some ready-to-go ingredients. Canned black beans, frozen corn, and pre-made salsa make this dish easy!

Ingredients

Blackened fish

  • 1/2 lb fish of choice
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder, garlic powder, and salt, each
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne, thyme, and oregano, each
  • Splash canola oil

Burrito Bowls

  • 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 cup each: cooked black beans, sliced red cabbage, corn (frozen/thawed)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
  • 1/4 cup salsa

Instructions

  1. Cut the fish into small pieces (mine where about 1 inch by 1/2 inch).
  2. Combine paprika, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, cayenne, thyme, and oregano in a large bowl.
  3. Add the fish to the bowl and toss to coat in the spices.
  4. Heat a heavy bottomed skillet (I use cast iron) over medium high heat. When hot, add a splash of oil and the seasoned fish. Cook 3-4 minutes or until the fish is opaque, stirring once to “flip” the fish pieces.

Bowls

  1. Between 2 medium bowls, split the cooked rice, black beans, red cabbage, corn, queso fresco, and salsa. Top with cooked fish and serve hot!

Notes

These ~600 calorie bowls are perfect for me. For lighter portions, split recipe into 3 bowls (~400 calories each).
