Keto Fish Taco Avocado Bowl

14 ratings

Fish tacos are an excellent lunch that (minus the tortillas) are very healthy to enjoy. Instead of loading your fish tacos into a flour or corn tortilla, try this recipe as an alternative. Using an avocado’s shell as a way to hold your filling is convenient and even saves you on some extra dishes! A fresh squeeze of lime while eating keep your avocado green and perfectly ripe.

Recipe Steps

21 min

  • Step 1

    Heat the olive oil in a small pan on medium-high heat. Place the flounder filet down, and sprinkle the first amount of salt and pepper on the exposed side. After about 3 minutes, flip the fish over to cook on the other side. Cook to your preferred doneness, but a slight char on the fish is best for this recipe.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    When the flounder is done cooking, turn off the heat and set the fish aside on a clean surface to cool. Meanwhile, dice the onion, jalapeno, and cilantro, and combine these ingredients with the second amount of salt in a bowl.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Chop the cooled flounder into very small pieces combine this with the ingredients in the bowl. Open and avocado, remove the pit, and cut ½-inch cubes from the fruit. Save the avocado skins, as this will be your serving vessel.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Combine the avocado and lime juice together with the taco ingredients as well. Then, scoop the filling into the avocado skins for serving. You can lightly pack the ingredients in, as they will slightly overflow from the avocado skins. Enjoy cold or warm - your choice!

    I used tilapia and put it in a 3g carb tortilla instead of the avo shell, with a tablespoon of sour cream. Very tasty and filling.

        Looks amazing. Haven't made it yet but I plan to. Question: does the fish get combined with the ingredients that go into the avocado shell, or do you serve it separately on the side?

          Step 3 - chop fish into small pieces and combine with ingredients already in the bowl, before loading into the avocado shells

            Sooooo delicious. I used tilapia and it turned out extremely well. I think almost any white fish would work with this recipe. I'd recommend making your fish as crunchy as you can so it holds up in the recipe without getting too mushy.
