Instructions

For the Fish

  1. Spread the blackened seasoning on a plate. Place fish in a shallow dish. Melt the butter and pour over top of the fish coating it on both sides. Remove and press fish into the spices until well coated. Set aside.
  2. Add the olive oil to a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the fish is charred on both sides and cooked all the way through (white and flaky), about 6 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.

For the dressing

  1. Blend together all ingredients until smooth using a blender or food processor.

For the salad & assembly

  1. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place the corn kernels on a baking sheet and toss together with the oil, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Stir halfway through and bake until corn starts to turn golden brown, 15 to 16 minutes.
  2. Arrange the lettuce on a large platter and layer in rows: seasoned corn, black beans, tomatoes, red onion, and queso fresco. Lay the blackened fish on top and serve with the dressing.
