Ingredients

  • 4 (4 ounce) skinless mahi-mahi fillets

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon salt, divided

  • 1 avocado

  • ⅓ cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt

  • ⅓ cup water

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • 6 (6 inch) corn tortillas, warmed

  • ½ cup jicama matchsticks

  • 1 red Fresno chile or jalapeño pepper, seeded and sliced

  • ½ cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

  1. Sprinkle fish evenly with chili powder and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish; cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.

  2. Place avocado, yogurt, water, lime juice and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender; process until well combined and smooth, about 30 seconds.

  3. Use a fork to flake the fish into large pieces. Top tortillas with the fish, jicama, the avocado sauce, sliced chile (or jalapeño) and cilantro. Serve immediately.
