Blackened Mahi-Mahi Fish Tacos {Easy, 30-minute Meal}
This Blackened Mahi-Mahi Fish Taco recipe comes together in less than 30 minutes, making it a perfect quick weeknight meal! The Blackened Mahi-Mahi tacos can be topped with an easy red cabbage slaw, and other customizable toppings.
In a large bowl, mix together all of the slaw ingredients. Set aside.
Use paper towels to pat dry the fish fillets.
Use half of the blackened seasoning to pour over the top of the fillets, rub the seasoning on so it sticks well. Flip over, and repeat on the other side of the fillets with the remaining seasoning.
In a large skillet (preferably cast-iron), heat one tablespoon of oil on medium-high heat. Allow the pan to get really hot.
Melt the butter in the pan, then immediately add the seasoned fish fillets, pressing the top of each one down with a spatula.
Cook the fillets, flipping only once until “blackened” or charred, about 3 minutes per side.
Let cool a few minutes, then cut the fillets into desired pieces, and serve on warmed tortillas.
Top with red cabbage slaw, and customize with optional toppings!
