We all know that fish is a wonderful source of protein. Fish also contains natural omega-3 fatty acids that offer health benefits and help our bodies to function.
Getting more fish into our diet can be challenging. I try to incorporate seafood or fish into recipes about twice a week.

Every family should have this frozen fish product in their freezer to make it easier for them to make seafood meals. You can use these fish fillets to make delicious recipes from tacos, burrito, burrito bowls, or even add them to a fresh salad!

Gorton's Beer Battered Fish Fillets are made with sustainably wild-caught Alaska Pollock, are100% whole fillets and are naturally rich in omega-3's making them quite the catch! The fish fillets are absolutely delicious with a fresh yet filling taste.
Now, let's talk about the homemade cilantro-lime rice. This is another important ingredient to making a delicious burrito bowl. I cooked the cilantro-lime rice in a pressure cooker. It took 3 minutes at high pressure and naturally release for 10 minutes. The rice is flavorful, fragrant and refreshing.
To make cilantro-lime rice, you will need a good quality long grain rice, chicken broth or water, lime zest, lime juice, and fresh chopped cilantro. I am going to show you the complete cooking instructions on the recipe card below.

I need to be buying and eating more fish. But it’s one thing that I typically don’t care for unless it’s fresh. But this fish burrito bowl sounds delicious. I’ll have to give the Gordon’s fish filets a try. I don’t think I would like the beer batter but I’m sure that they have another option.
Kristine Nicole Alessandra says
Delicious! This would be a great meal for any day and oh so healthy too. I do have to stock up on these fish fillets! There will be so many yummy dishes I can make with them. Fish tacos will be our dinner sometime next week!
