Prepare Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Deliciously succulent and tender white fish is seasoned with spicy blackened seasoning and seared in a pan until dark. The result is a fantastic fish taco! The fish is layered into Keto tortillas and topped with shredded cabbage, thinly sliced poblanos, chopped cilantro, and lime crema. Feel free to add shredded Chihuahua cheese or crumbled cotija cheese on top, as well as low carb salsa or hot sauces. Pico de gallo would be a great addition to the tacos too. ### What kind of fish can I use? Any white fish will work well for these tacos like Swai, flounder, tilapia, or codfish. ### Can I buy blackened seasoning? Yes! Just be sure to find a seasoning that has no added sugars. The mix in the recipe below will make more seasoning than you will need, but you can save it in an airtight container for another occasion. ### How long does the lime crema last? I have extra sauce. The lime crema will last for over a week in the fridge store in an airtight container. ### What kind of tortillas can I use? If you are not too sensitive to carbs, you can use low carb tortillas sold in major grocery stores. However, the best option would be to make the ones on our site here: https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-tortillas.

How to make Keto Ultimate Fish Tacos With Lime Crema

Mix the blackened seasoning spices together in a small bowl. Season the fish on both sides with the mixture.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil and swirl the pan to distribute the oil evenly. Add the fillets and cook on both sides for 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is browned nicely.
Flip the fillets and cook on the other side until cooked through about 1-2 minutes. The length of cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fish.
In the meantime, slice the cabbage very thin and prepare the lime crema. Combine the juice of ½ a lime and mayo in a small bowl. Chop the cilantro and set it aside.
Take the tortillas and place some fish inside along with sliced cabbage, chopped cilantro and the lime crema. Feel free to serve the fish tacos with plenty of sliced avocado and lime wedges!
