{"0":"Preparation:","2":"1. Coat fish lightly with olive oil, sprinkle on salt and garlic salt and allow to sit. Stir together orange and lime juice, zest, garlic, jalapeno, 1 tsp chili powder, cumin and oregano. To marinate, I put the fish in a large ziploc bag (to minimize dishes) and pour the marinade over. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, up to 30 minutes.","4":"2. Remove fish from the fridge and pat dry. Heat saute pan on medium heat. Sear fish on each side for 6-8 minutes (click here for a fish cooking tip). Cut into small pieces (they won't be even because the fish will be very flaky).","6":"3. Heat up tortillas. Spread sour cream on the bottom of the tortilla. Add fish, top with salsa, cheese and avocado slices. Healthy and flavorful! Leftovers will last you one more day, save all ingredients separately."}
