Step 1: Cook Rice
In a medium saucepan combine rice, ½ tsp. salt, and 1¾ cups water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover. Simmer gently until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 15 minutes.

Step 3: Grill Fish
In a large, heavy skillet heat oil over medium-high. Add fish and cook, turning once, until blackened on both sides and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side depending on thickness of fish. Transfer to a plate.

Stir cilantro and lime juice into rice.

Step 5: Stir Yogurt Sauce
In a medium bowl stir together yogurt and enough water to reach a smooth, pourable consistency.

Fold bottom of tortilla over filling, fold in sides, and roll up. Place seam side down on work surface and repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Serve blackened fish burritos warm.
