Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 pieces fresh halibut, steak or filets, 6 to 8 ounces each
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Salt and pepper
1 lime, juiced
3 small to medium ripe Haas avocados, pitted and scooped from skins with a large spoon
1 lemon, juiced
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, eyeball it
1 cup plain yogurt
1 teaspoon coarse salt, eyeball it
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle
1 heart Romaine lettuce
12 soft (6-inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan or indoor grill to high heat or, prepare outdoor grill. Drizzle halibut with extra-virgin olive oil to keep fish from sticking to the grill pan or grill. Season fish with salt and pepper, to your taste. Roll lime on the counter top to get juices flowing. Also, any under ripe citrus may be placed in a microwave oven for 10 seconds at high setting to induce the juices to flow. Grill fish 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until opaque. Squeeze the juice of 1 lime down over the fish and remove from the grill pan or grill. Flake fish into large chunks with a fork. While fish is cooking, in a blender or food processor, combine avocado flesh, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, yogurt and salt. Process guacamole sauce until smooth. Remove guacamole sauce to a bowl and stir in diced tomatoes and chopped scallions. Shred lettuce and reserve. When fish comes off the grill pan or grill, blister and heat soft taco wraps. To assemble, break up fish and pile some of the meat into soft shells and slather with guacamole sauce. Top with shredded lettuce, fold tacos over and eat!

I can't wait to try these tacos! I love halibut and I'm always looking for new ways to cook it.

These tacos are perfect for a party or potluck. They're easy to make ahead of time and they always disappear quickly.

I'm allergic to avocados, so I used a Greek yogurt sauce instead. It was just as good!

These tacos are a great way to use up leftover fish. I usually make them with salmon or tilapia.

I've made these tacos several times now and they're always a hit. I love that I can use any type of fish I have on hand.

I thought these tacos were just okay. The fish was a little dry and the toppings were bland. I probably won't be making them again.

These tacos were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best fish tacos he's ever had.

I loved the combination of flavors in these tacos. The sweetness of the pineapple and the spiciness of the jalapeño were perfectly balanced.

5/5 stars! These fish tacos are now my go-to recipe for Taco Tuesday. They're so easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser.

These tacos were easy to make and absolutely delicious. I used cod instead of halibut, and it turned out great. The avocado sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not usually a fan of fish tacos, but these were surprisingly good. The halibut was flaky and moist, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. I'll definitely be making these again.

These fish tacos were a hit with my family! The halibut was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. I especially loved the creamy avocado sauce.
