Number Of Ingredients 15

FISH:
1 pound orange roughy or other boneless, skinless fish fillet, such as red snapper
3 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, optional
TACOS:
8 whole grain high-fiber tortillas or stone-ground corn tortillas
1/2 avocado, diced and lightly mashed
1/3 cup low-fat Mexican or pepper Jack cheese, shredded
1/2 cup tomato salsa
4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
1 1/2 cups cabbage, finely shredded
Hot sauce, optional

Steps:

  • FISH: Place the fish in a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with the lime juice, paprika, salt, black pepper, and chili powder (if desired). Cover, refrigerate, and marinate for about 30 minutes. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (or preheat the oven to 375°F). Lightly coat a 24" x 12" piece of foil with olive oil cooking spray. Place the fish in a single layer in the center of the foil. Fold the foil over and fold the ends upward to seal in the fish. Place the foil packet on the preheated grill. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque. Remove from the grill. TACO ASSEMBLY: Wrap the tortillas in foil and place them on the grill to warm for 2 minutes. Spread about one-eighth of the mashed avocado on each tortilla and top with one-eighth of the fish. Sprinkle each with cheese, salsa, cilantro, cabbage, and hot sauce, if desired. Serve with glasses of ice water garnished with a slice of orange and a sprig of fresh mint.
