Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the white fish fillets and coat them well. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and let it rest.

Salsa Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Salsa

    In a bowl, mix together diced tomatoes, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño (if using), lime juice, and salt. Stir well and set aside for the flavors to meld.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side. Flake the grilled fish and place a portion on each tortilla. Top with the prepared salsa, avocado slices, and serve with lime wedges.
