INGREDIENTS

  • Protein

    • 🐟 6 (2 ounce) frozen breaded fish fillets

  • Vegetables

    • 8 leaves romaine lettuce
    • 🍅 2 tomatoes, cut into small wedges
    • 🥑 1 avocado, diced
    • 🥒 ½ cucumber, sliced
    • 2 slices jicama, diced, or more to taste
    • 🧅 1 tablespoon minced onion

  • Dairy

    • 🧀 2 tablespoons crumbled cotija cheese

  • Condiments

    • ¼ cup creamy cilantro salad dressing

  • Herbs

    • 🌿 6 sprigs cilantro, or to taste

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place fish fillets in a single layer on a shallow metal baking pan.

2

Bake in the preheated oven, flipping halfway, until crispy and browned, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil. Let cool for 5 minutes.

3

Tear apart lettuce leaves and divide between 2 salad bowls. Place tomatoes over the lettuce. Arrange avocado, cucumber, jicama, and onion around tomatoes. Cut fish fillets into quarters and arrange over the salads. Drizzle some salad dressing around the vegetables and over the fish.

4

Sprinkle each salad with 1/2 of the cotija cheese. Garnish with cilantro leaves.

💡 For a lower-carb meal, skip the breaded fish and substitute with grilled or baked fish fillets.For extra crunch, consider adding a handful of tortilla chips (if carbs are not a concern).Serve the salad cold for the best texture and flavor balance.
