Growing up in Southern California, I love good Baja-style beer battered fish tacos. This is a healthier, quicker alternative that's easier to clean up. Keep all the condiments on the side and let kids or guests top their own tacos.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds halibut
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
2 limes, juiced, plus two additional cut in quarters to serving with tacos
6 corn or flour tortillas
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1 ripe avocado, halved and sliced
optional condiments: thinly sliced cabbage, cilantro, thinly sliced radish, pico de gallo, tomatillo salsa, avocado slices or guacamole

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place halibut in a shallow bowl and rub with taco seasoning. Pour lime juice into bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use, no more than 15 minutes.
On a sheet pan lightly coated with olive oil or parchment paper, add the marinated halibut. Discard extra lime juice in the bowl.
Roast in the top third of the oven until the fish starts to flake and is opaque, about 15 minutes.
In a tortilla, place a slice of the cooked fish and top it with cabbage, avocado, cilantro leaves and a dollop of fresh tomatillo salsa or La Taqueria green sauce.
