Cookware
chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · grill pan, outdoor grill, or skillet · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · spatula
Directions
- Prepare the produce: wash and dry all fresh produce, then slice the Napa cabbage into thin shreds and transfer to a large bowl.
- Dice the tomato and add it to the cabbage.
- Halve and pit the avocados; scoop the flesh into a small bowl for later mashing.
- Rinse and roughly chop the cilantro, discarding the stems; divide half into the cabbage and reserve the rest for the guacamole.
- Squeeze the lime; divide the juice between the cabbage and the avocado to brighten both components.
- Pat the halibut dry, drizzle with olive oil, and season with chili powder, salt, and pepper.
- Warm a grill pan or skillet over medium heat, then cook the fish until opaque and golden, about 2–3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
- Mash the avocado with a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth to make the guacamole.
- Toss the cabbage with the remaining cilantro and a pinch of salt and pepper. Warm the tortillas briefly in a covered plate or microwave, if desired, then assemble by layering cabbage, flaked fish, and spoonfuls of guacamole on each tortilla.
Two tips
- Make-ahead: prep the slaw and guacamole up to a day ahead; store separately in the fridge.
- Serving idea: add sliced avocado and a squeeze of lime at the table for extra brightness.
