- 1 lb firm white fish fillets, such as black drum, sea bass, red snapper or halibut
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin or chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 8 corn tortillas (6 inch)
- 1/4 cup guacamole
- Toppers (shredded lettuce/cabbage/coleslaw (no dressing), chopped avocado, chopped tomatoes, chopped onion and chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup tomatillo salsa (recipe to follow) OR 1/2 cup your favorite salsa

- Heat gas or charcoal grill. Brush fish with oil; sprinkle with cumin, salt and pepper.
- Carefully
spray grill rack with cooking spray. Place fish on grill. Cover grill;
cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes, carefully turning once, until fish flakes
easily with fork.
- Heat tortillas as directed on package. Spread guacamole on tortillas. Add fish, Toppers and salsa.
- * Optional* To make tomatillo salsa: place 2 lbs tomatillos (washed), 2 jalapenos (de-seeded), 2 cloves fresh garlic (leave peeling on to protect in oven), 2 small sweet onion (quartered) on sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast under broiler for 7-10 minutes turning frequently to prevent burning, but a little browning is good for flavor and intensity! Squeeze garlic into blender or food processor, Place all other vegetables in food processor when cooled for a few pulses until the texture is how you like, add chopped cilantro and enjoy!!!

Eat Fish.....Eating lean fish is a smart choice. Many varieties can be relatively low in fat and high in protein--if broiled or baked. Skip the fried versions.
Substitution.....Fish tacos typically are made with corn tortillas instead of flour, but you can also use small flour tortillas. Top these flavorful fish tacos with any of your favorite condiments: shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, avocados or fresh cilantro. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
