Fresh, light, full of flavor, lean, and super healthy, fish is a wonderful ingredient that simply has to be included in our diets.
However, cooking fish can sometimes feel daunting and overwhelming.
With so many different recipes to choose from and so many different ways to cook them, knowing what to do can seem, at times, impossible.
No need to worry though, we’re here to help.
If you’re looking for the best paleo fish recipes, you’ve come to the right place.
To help you add a range of awesome fish paleo recipes to your repertoire, we’ve done the hard work for you and found 15 of the best recipes on the internet.
In today’s post, we’ll show you what we found. Let’s not waste any more time, here’s our list!
We’ll start off with an absolute cracker from the Whole Kitchen Sink. Perfect for a quick and easy weekday dinner, this recipe is super healthy and full of flavor.
Combining the delicate flavors of cod with various spices and veggies is a great way to enhance the overall flavor of the fish.
Ready to eat in less than 30 minutes, this must-try dish is great for fussy eaters too. Simply pick and choose the veggies and spices you want to use and off you go.
Vibrant and incredibly yummy, we loved the combination of different textures in this dish most.
If you want to put a paleo twist on your cod, you should give this coconut pan-fried salmon recipe a try.
Despite being a fairly elegant dish, this recipe is super easy to follow. So much so, you’ll probably find yourself coming back to it time and time again.
The coconut-crumbed salmon is fresh and fragrant, whilst the crust is golden and crispy. Pair your salmon with your choice of greens and you’re on to a winner.
Next up, we have this gorgeous paleo fish tacos recipe. Let’s face it, tacos never disappoint. Even the fussiest of eaters can’t turn down a good fish taco, right?
Fish tacos usually come with unhealthy fish that’s been heavily deep-fried in batter and tacos loaded with calories.
Not this recipe though! No, this recipe instead comes with healthier coconut flour tacos and beautifully grilled cod that has been coated in coconut flakes.
The end result is a stunning dish that is both light and packed with fresh flavors.
Most people consider calamari to be a difficult ingredient to cook with. On top of that, it’s commonly served after being deep-fried.
Luckily for us, it doesn’t have to be either of those things. Instead, we can use it to make a stunning paleo-grilled calamari salad (see also ‘15 Awesome Paleo Salad Recipes For Paleo Lovers‘).
Taking just 15 minutes to make, this is a simple, yet flavorful dish that only calls for 13 basic pantry ingredients.
What we love most about this dish, aside from its simple elegance, is that it wonderfully combines sweet, salty, earthy, and spicy flavors to create a taste sensation.
Another fantastically simple paleo fish dish is this air-fryer coconut shrimp recipe. Thanks to the air fryer and coconut flakes, we can easily make a much healthier version of this fish snack (see also ‘15 Awesome Paleo Snack Recipes You’ll Love‘).
Beautifully combining the delicate flavors of the shrimp with the tropical flavors of the coconut, this recipe can be used to make a batch of shrimp perfect for a family gathering or party.
You’ll be impressed by just how crispy these shrimp can get. They’re much healthier for you than deep-fried shrimp too.
The next recipe on our list shows you how to make a much healthier, paleo, and whole30-friendly British classic.
Of course, that dish is fish and chips. If we’re being honest, there’s not too much to say about this recipe.
It’s incredibly simple, yet extremely delicious. The cod tastes fresh and light, whilst the chips are crispy and golden on the outside and delightfully fluffy in the middle.
There’s just something special about this hearty recipe that will make the whole family smile so give it a try.
Giving off true Caribbean vibes and flavors, this cod fritters recipe is one you have to make. Each bite-size fritter is slightly crisp on the outside and beautifully soft and fresh on the inside.
Perfect for a dinner or buffet, you’ll probably find yourself making double as your guests will certainly come back for more.
The addition of various herbs and spices helps the fish taste even better, but it is the inclusion of lime juice that really elevates the dish.
The lemon juice adds that extra zing that makes these fritters taste so good.
We have to say, if you love sweet and spicy dishes, this next one will blow your socks off. Made from scratch in just 20 minutes, this gorgeous salmon dish is extremely well-flavored.
Offering both sweet and spicy vibes, you’ll struggle to find a salmon recipe that better flavors the fish.
This particular recipe uses coconut sugar, chili powder, sriracha, and maple syrup to liven things up.
We must say, the maple syrup does an excellent job of giving the dish a thicker, more satisfying texture.
The next dish on our list is perfect for anyone that wants to impress their dinner guests.
Combining a wide range of sweet and spicy flavors such as ginger, soy sauce, peppers, and lemon, this recipe helps you create a versatile dish packed full of intriguing flavors and textures.
Containing zucchini noodles, the dish looks super simple but packs a punch. Low in carbs, highly nutritious, and surprisingly filling, this is a recipe that won’t disappoint. We actually recommend saving it for special occasions.
Taco bowls are all the rage right now so it only makes sense to try this fish taco bowl recipe from 40 Aprons.
Containing mango salsa, chipotle aioli, red cabbage slaw, heaps of guacamole, coconut-lime cauliflower rice, and cod, this is a hearty dish that will keep you full for hours.
Incredibly vibrant, this dish is also extremely nutritious. In fact, it may be the most nutritious recipe on this list.
Some of you may also be pleased to hear that this dish is gluten-free, paleo, dairy-free, grain-free, sugar-free, and whole30.
The penultimate recipe on our list is this excellent baked haddock recipe from Heal Me Delicious. Upon first glance, this looks like a fairly unhealthy dish, but it actually isn’t.
It features fresh haddock baked in a filling potato cream sauce. The fish and sauce are then served over a bed of fresh onions and asparagus.
Full of flavor and ready in just 35 minutes, this is a hearty dish that the whole family will enjoy.
The final fish paleo recipe on our list is the tasty paleo fish stew recipe from Chelsea Joy Eats. The best thing about this recipe is how comforting it is.
Hot, creamy, spicy, sweet, and super filling, this dish is easily the best winter recipe on our list.
