Ingredients

• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 (8 ounce) jar salsa
• 1 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese
• 2 cups shredded cabbage
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
• 8 corn tortillas
• 1 tablespoon ground ancho chile powder
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.25 cup chopped cilantro
• 0.5 pound halibut fillets

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Drain marinade; grill fillets for 5 minutes. Turn and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 2 minutes more.

Step 2

Warm tortillas on the grill or stove. Divide halibut among tortillas and top with cabbage, salsa, pepper Jack cheese, and avocado.

Step 3

Stir lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, jalapeno, chile powder, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl or resealable zip-top bag. Add halibut and marinate for 20 to 25 minutes. Do not over-marinate, as lime juice will start to 'cook' the fish.
