Cali-style fish tacos are always fast and fresh. Chop up juicy oranges and fold them into a salsa for a citrus twist.
Contains: fish, wheat.
Note: The fish may arrive frozen for freshness. Store it in the refrigerator to defrost before cooking. If you need to defrost it same day, place the sealed package in a bowl of cold water, and leave the tap running in a thin stream for about 30 minutes.

What You'll Need
Olive oil
Salt
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450Β°F. Line a sheet tray with foil or parchment.
Step 2
Remove the fish from the packaging and pat dry with paper towels. Place the fish on the prepared pan, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with the fajita spice mix and salt. Bake until the fish is firm to the touch and flakes easily when pierced with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, to make the citrus salsa, peel and roughly chop the orange (you should have about 1Β½ cups). Transfer the chopped orange and any juices to a bowl. Drizzle with the juice of Β½ lime, and cut the remaining Β½ lime into wedges for serving. Finely chop 2 tablespoons of the spring onions. Roughly chop about 1 cup of the cilantro. Mince the jalapeΓ±o, if using. Add the spring onions and cilantro to the bowl, along with jalapeΓ±o to taste. Drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil, season with 2 pinches of salt, and stir to combine. Peel, pit, and slice the avocado for serving.
Step 4
To warm the tortillas, in a dry pan over medium-high heat, flash the tortillas for 30 seconds on each side. Wrap them in a clean towel to steam through and keep warm.
Step 5
To build the tacos, place the tortillas on plates and pile with flakes of roasted fish, the citrus salsa, avocado, and shredded cabbage. Serve warm, with the lime wedges for squeezing.
