About
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.
