Ingredients

From your pantry: 2 tbsp oil, 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp oregano, ½ tsp cayenne, salt.

Instructions

  1. Cook the rice and warm the beans. Mix the pineapple, tomato, half the cilantro, juice of ½ lime and a pinch of salt for salsa. Toss the slaw with the juice of ½ lime and a pinch of salt.
  2. Mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cayenne and 1 tsp salt. Pat the cod dry, brush with 1 tbsp oil and press the spice mix on all sides.
  3. Heat the remaining oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Cook the cod until dark and crusty, 3 to 4 minutes, flip gently and cook 2 to 3 minutes more until it flakes.
  4. Stir the yogurt with the remaining lime juice and a pinch of salt.
  5. Build bowls with rice, beans, slaw and big flakes of cod. Top with salsa, avocado, crema and cilantro.

Tip: Blackening smokes a lot; turn on the fan, or bake the seasoned fish at 425°F for 10 to 12 minutes instead.
