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.

  • Cole Slaw Rice:
  • ½ cup cooked according to package directions (about 1 ⅔ cups cooked) UNCLE BEN'S® Flavor Infusions Spanish Style Rice

  • 4 (6 ½-inch) wheat tortillas, warmed
  • ¼ cup shredded Colby Monterey Jack cheese
  • Berries and lime wedges
