Flounder is a fantastic white fish that holds flavor well, doesn’t taste gamey, and is very healthy for you! This Tex-Mex rub is similar to what you’d find in a taco seasoning. If you don’t like spicy foods, omit the cayenne pepper from this recipe. You can serve your Tex-Mex Flounder with a healthy keto side dish, such as the Carb Manager Mexican Fried Rice.
Combine all the spices in a bowl for an even mixture.
Lay 2 flounder fillets down on a flat surface. Press the spice mixture gently but thoroughly onto each side of each flounder filet.
Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Place the flounder in the oil, and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook the flounder for 4-5 minutes, flipping over half way through.
Enjoy your Tex-Mex flounder with a fresh squeeze of lime!
