Let’s break down the steps to make this amazing fish burrito recipe, from marinating the fish to assembling the perfect burrito.

1. Prepare and Season the Fish

• Marinate the fish: Start by patting your fish fillets dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, cumin, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Rub this mixture all over the fish fillets, making sure they’re well-coated. Let the fish marinate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to soak in.

2. Cook the Fish

• Pan-fry the fish: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a bit of olive oil. Once hot, place the fish fillets in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the fish is golden and flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook it!
• Flake the fish: Once the fish is cooked, transfer it to a plate and use a fork to gently flake it into bite-sized pieces.

3. Prepare the Burrito Fillings

• Cook the rice: While the fish is marinating, cook the rice according to package instructions. You can use either white or brown rice, depending on your preference.
• Prep the veggies: Chop the tomatoes, onion, and avocado, and rinse the black beans and corn. Set aside all your burrito fillings so they’re ready to go.

4. Make the Cilantro Lime Sauce

• Whisk the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt (or sour cream), mayonnaise, lime juice, chopped cilantro, honey, salt, and pepper. This tangy, creamy sauce will add a burst of flavor to your burritos!

5. Assemble the Fish Burritos

• Warm the tortillas: Heat your tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds. Warm tortillas are easier to roll and fold.
• Layer the ingredients: Start by spreading a spoonful of the cilantro lime sauce down the center of each tortilla. Then, layer on the rice, black beans, corn, tomatoes, shredded lettuce, avocado slices, and shredded cheese (if using). Top with the flaked fish and an extra drizzle of the sauce.
• Fold the burrito: Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. Make sure everything is snug so the fillings don’t spill out.

6. Serve and Enjoy

• Slice and serve: Slice the burritos in half for easy handling, and serve with extra sauce, salsa, or hot sauce on the side. You can also serve these with a side of tortilla chips and guacamole for a complete meal.
