    About this dish

    How do you make the enticing taste of fresh fish even better? Enliven it with the subtle zing of Monterey Jack cheese, the crunch of coleslaw, Spanish-style rice, and a touch of garlic flavor‒all combined in a warm tortilla.     

    Ingredients

    • Cole Slaw Rice:
    • ½ cup cooked according to package directions (about 1 ⅔ cups cooked) UNCLE BEN'S® Flavor Infusions Spanish Style Rice
    • 2 cups coleslaw mix
    • 2 tablespoons your favorite light vinaigrette
    • Fish:
    • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    • ½ pound halibut or cod fillet, cut into 4 pieces, rinsed and patted dry
    • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
    • ⅛ teaspoon freshly cracked pepper
    • 4 (6 ½-inch) wheat tortillas, warmed
    • ¼ cup shredded Colby Monterey Jack cheese
    • Berries and lime wedges

    Instructions

    1. In large bowl stir together rice, coleslaw mix, and vinaigrette; set aside. Stirring is a fun activity your child can do.
    2. Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
    3. Season fish with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
    4. Cook fish for 3 to 4 minutes; turn over and continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes or until fish just flakes with a fork.
    5. To assemble tacos: Place about ¼ of rice mixture down center of tortilla.
    6. Top with 1 piece of cooked fish, and 1 tablespoon shredded cheese.
    7. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Refrigerate leftovers.
