Step-by-step

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Make the slaw: In a food processor, combine avocado, yogurt, limes, cilantro, garlic, chile, and salt. Add ¼ cup water and purée until smooth. Add more water as needed, 1 tablespoon at a time, to loosen. Adjust seasoning.
  • Pour half the dressing into a large bowl. Add cabbage and toss to coat.
  • Make the fish: Place egg in a shallow dish. Spread quinoa in a separate shallow dish and season with salt. Dip fish in egg, then roll in quinoa. Repeat.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until browned on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Add lettuce and toss.
  • Divide lettuce among bowls. Top each with fish, mango, and slaw. Serve with remaining dressing.
