Blackened Cod Tacos With Spicy Mayo

This cod ain't burnt, it's blackened, Creole-style! That simply means you'll rub it with allspice and paprika, then pan-fry until it has a dark spicy crust. The cherry tomato and lime salsa are chopped up roughly, so it's easy to eat. Messy, zesty & juicy! (Dairy-free: see our FAQs for details).

Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 portion recipe.

1.

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C (fan)/ 400°F/ Gas 6

Place the tortilla wraps onto a baking tray 

Step 1
2.

Chop the cherry tomatoes roughly

Slice the spring onion[s] finely

Chop the coriander finely including the stalks, reserve a few leaves for garnish  

Cut the lime[s] in half 

Step 2
3.

Combine the chopped cherry tomatoes, sliced spring onion and chopped coriander all together on your chopping board

Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper and then chop the lot together roughly until you end up with a rough salsa (this makes it easier to eat!)

Add the salsa to a bowl and squeeze the juice of 1/2 [1] lime over, mix through and set aside 

Step 3
4.

Combine the mayonnaise and chipotle paste (Can't handle the heat? Go easy!) with a drizzle of olive oil and set aside – this is your spicy mayo 

Step 4
5.

Combine the smoked paprika and half [all] of the ground allspice on a plate with a pinch of salt and pepper

Mix the spices together

Press the cod fillets into the spice mix to coat all over 

Step 5
6.

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat

Once hot, add the spiced cod fillets and cook for 4 min, flipping once 

Don't be alarmed if the cod looks like it's burning, it will become 'blackened', which gives it the smoky, charred flavour you want

Step 6
7.

Put the tortilla wraps in the oven for 2-3 min, just until they are just warmed through

Cut the remaining lime into wedges

 

Step 7
8.

Divide the salsa and blackened cod between the tortillas and drizzle them with the spicy mayo
