Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 halibut or mahi-mahi fillets (6 oz. each)
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil divided
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice divided
  • ½ tsp sea salt + additional for fish
  • 1 avocado ripe, diced
  • 1 mango ripe, diced
  • ½ red onion small, diced
  • ½ jalapeno seeded and minced
  • ¼ cup packed fresh cilantro diced
  • ¼ cup packed fresh basil diced
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 4 lime wedges
  • 8-10 corn tortillas

Instructions

  • Prepare a grill to medium-high heat.
  • Place fish fillets in a baking dish. Drizzle 2 tbsp each of olive oil and lime juice over the fillets and season fish with salt. Marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  • While the fish is marinating, in a large mixing bowl, gently combine the avocado, mango, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, basil, remaining olive oil and lime juice. Add cumin, ½ teaspoon salt and pepper and set aside at room temperature.
  • Brush grill rack with melted coconut oil (you could alternatively cook the fish in a cast iron pan over the grill). Grill fish until just opaque in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer fish to plates and break fillets up a bit, serving on corn tortillas. Spoon salsa over fish and squeeze a lime wedge over each. Serve warm and enjoy!
