Fish Taco Bowl with Black Bean and Corn Salsa
May 5th, 2026A Low Carb Fish Taco Bowl
For this fish taco bowl recipe, we pair baked white fish with simple Mexican-inspired flavors, garnishing the bowl with a high fiber black bean and corn salsa. The option to use cauliflower rice — instead of white rice — helps to lower the carb content of the dish.
Try using Wild Alaska Pollock, yelloweye rockfish, or Pacific halibut for this recipe. Adjust the cooking time as needed, depending on the the thickness of the fish.

Ingredients
- 2 (6 to 8 oz.) portions Pacific halibut, yelloweye rockfish, or Wild Alaska Pollock
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon cumin
- Sea salt and pepper, to taste
- Extra virgin olive oil
- ½ can of black beans, drained

- 3 tablespoons chopped red onion

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Meanwhile, pat rockfish dry with clean kitchen towel or paper towel. In a small bowl, combine cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and salt & pepper to taste. Sprinkle both sides of fish with seasoning, then arrange in single layer on baking sheet or oven-safe dish. Drizzle with oil to lightly coat. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on size of fillets, or until opaque through the centers.
3. While the fish is baking, prepare the corn salsa. Combine the black beans, corn, cabbage, onion, and cilantro in a medium bowl and toss with lime juice. Set aside.
4. Assemble the bowl by layering in rice (or cauliflower rice), fish, and corn salsa. Garnish with avocado, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges, and enjoy while hot.
