PREPARATION:

Mix the mango, avocado, onion and lime juice in a bowl. Season with cilantro, salt & pepper. Heat a grill or stovetop grill pan until hot.

Drizzle a light coating of oil over the fish and rub on the blackening spice. Cook the fish, undisturbed for 4 minutes. Carefully flip with a spatula and cook for another 4 minutes. Remove.

Warm the tortillas on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes or wrap in damp paper towels and microwave for 1 minute until warm & pliable. Break the fish into chunks and divide among the warm tortillas. Top with the cabbage and the mango salsa. Serve with lime wedges.

Hints: I shredded the cabbage very thin with my mandolin. If you don’t care for cabbage, use lettuce instead. You can cook your fish by your preferred method.
