PREPARATION

PREPARATION

1 Sear veggies using half the oil in a heavy skillet over medium-hi heat for about 4 minutes (softened but not wilted). Remove from pan.

2 Add remainder of oil to pan and add fish, skin side down. Cook about 2 minutes.

3 Add spices and stir fish once with a spatula, trying not to break it too much.

4 Cook one additional minute. Add veggies to the fish, gently mix and remove from heat.

5 In a clean pan over low heat put a few drops of oil, add a tortilla and gently move around with fingers, flip and repeat, until warmed and softened.

6 About 1 minute. Stack warmed tortillas on a plate and cover with clean dish towel to keep warm.

7 Serve at once. Allow diners to spoon fish into tacos and add cheese, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, etc., as desired. Eat with hands.
