Mahi Mahi Tacos

Mahi Mahi Tacos showcase strips of blackened, pan-fried fresh mahi mahi served in keto-friendly tortillas with Mexican-style coleslaw and chipotle aioli. The fish is seasoned with a homemade blackened spice blend and cooked in butter and olive oil, providing a rich, slightly smoky flavor. The tacos combine tender fish, crisp slaw, and creamy aioli for balanced textures.

Ingredients

  • 24 ounces mahi mahi cut into strips, fresh
  • 1 batch coleslaw Mexican style
  • 1 batch chipotle aioli
  • 1 tablespoon blackened seasoning homemade
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • tortillas keto friendly

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a large skillet to medium and add in the butter and olive oil.
  2. Sprinkle the blackened seasoning on all sides of each piece of mahi mahi.
  3. Pan fry each piece for a few minutes on each side, until they are cooked through. Take some of the Mexican Coleslaw and add it to the bottom of a small Keto Tortilla.
  4. Add the strips of blackened Mahi Mahi over the coleslaw and add a little more on top. Then add a drizzle of the Chipotle Aioli over the top and serve. I added some thinly sliced avocado to mine, but that is completely optional.

Notes

  • If mahi mahi is unavailable, substitute with cod, red snapper, grouper, or salmon based on preference.
  • Calculate nutrition separately for the tortillas as their macros vary depending on brand or homemade recipes.
  • Optional avocado slices can be added inside the tacos for added richness and texture.
