Ingredients

• 2 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., tilapia or cod)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 8 leaves butterhead or romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 0.5 medium cucumber, julienned
• 0.25 medium red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 medium avocado, sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Pat the white fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season with paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Place the fish fillets in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 4

While the fish cools, prepare the zesty dressing by mixing mayonnaise, lime juice, and optional hot sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 5

Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Arrange them on a clean plate or cutting board.

Step 6

Divide the sliced bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, avocado, and cilantro evenly among the lettuce leaves, placing the vegetables in the center of each leaf.

Step 7

Flake the cooked fish into large chunks and distribute evenly over the prepared lettuce wraps.

Step 8

Drizzle the zesty dressing over the fish and vegetables.

Step 9

Carefully fold or roll the lettuce leaves around the fillings to form wraps. Secure with toothpicks if needed.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Low Carb Zesty Fish Wraps!
