Grilled Fish Tacos















Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 12 minutes
Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS:
1 mango, peeled, pitted and cubed
1 avocado, pitted, peeled and cubed
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
Juice of 1 lime, plus wedges for garnish
Chopped fresh cilantro
Salt and black pepper
Canola oil
2 large mahimahi fillets (1 1/2 lb total)
8 corn tortillas
2 cups finely shredded red cabbage

DIRECTIONS:
Mix the mango, avocado, onion and the juice of 1 lime in a bowl.  Season with cilantro, salt and pepper.

Heat a grill or stove-top grill pan until hot.  Drizzle a light coating of oil over the fish and rub on the blackening spice.  Cook the fish, undisturbed, for 4 minutes.  Carefully flip with a spatula and cook for another 4 minutes.  Remove.

Warm the tortillas on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes or wrap in damp paper towels and microwave for 1 minute until warm and pliable.

Break the fish into chunks and divide among the warm tortillas.  Top with the cabbage and the mango salsa.  Serve with lime wedges.
