• 8 pieces romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 large avocado
• 1 large lime
• 0.25 cup mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
• 0.5 small red onion
• 1 optional jalapeño

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix together almond flour, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the egg.

Dip each fish fillet in the beaten egg, then coat with the almond flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

While the fish is baking, prepare the avocado-lime sauce. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado flesh, juice of 1 lime, mayonnaise, and cilantro. Blend until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt to taste.

Step 9

Finely chop the red onion and, if using, the jalapeño.

Step 10

To assemble the tacos, place each cooked fish fillet onto a lettuce leaf.

Step 11
