Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and add the fish fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky. Remove from grill and let rest.

Cabbage Slaw Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Toss well to combine and set aside to let the flavors meld.

Chipotle Aioli Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced chipotle peppers, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt until smooth and well blended.

Assembling Tacos

  1. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. To each tortilla, add a piece of grilled fish, a generous amount of cabbage slaw, a drizzle of chipotle aioli, and slices of avocado. Serve immediately.
