Baja Fish One Bowl Fix


Sometimes, (and especially after a late workout), I dread cooking dinner. Like, I would pay someone to cook for me. But since we can't go out to eat every time I feel this way, recipes like this are a life-saver! Simple and quick, this one bowl meal is packed with taste and nutrition that is perfect post-workout.




Prep Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Serves: 3-4

Ingredients:

1 lb white fish (I used Swai tonight, but I've used both Tilapia and Cod with great results in the past.)
2 avocados, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 can RoTel tomatoes
1/2 head of either red or green cabbage
Salt and pepper
4 teaspoons butter, separated
Lots of fresh cilantro

1) In a large skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of butter over medium-high. Add cabbage and sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside in a bowl.

2) Return skillet to heat, and heat remaining butter until melted. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and lay fish on top of mixture. Cook until cooked through, flipping once, about 8 minutes.

3) Using a wooden spoon, flake fish apart into bite sized pieces.

4) Add RoTel, avocado, and cabbage to skillet and stir together.

5) Garnish with plenty of cilantro, and throw yourself onto the nearest couch with a glass of wine, and enjoy!
