Make the Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the marinated fish and cook until it is flaky and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the capers, raisins, and half of the chipotle tomatillo salsa. Mix well and set aside.

Assemble the Pescadillas
Take a corn tortilla and fill it with a generous amount of the fish mixture and a sprinkle of Oaxacan cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape.
