Vegetable oil

Salt and pepper

1 tablespoon Lime juice

1/2 teaspoon Ground cumin

12 Corn tortillas

6 ounces California Queso Fresco cheese*, crumbled (*can substitute Asadero or Monterey Jack)

Preparation

Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels. Rub oil on both sides to coat; season with salt and pepper. Grill or broil fish 6 to 9 minutes, until cooked through, cool slightly. Remove skin and bones; cut fish into 1 1/2-inch strips.

In medium bowl, toss fish with lime juice and cumin. Meanwhile, combine salsa ingredients in small bowl. Warm tortillas in microwave or oven (preheated to about 275°F). Place equal amounts of fish, cheese, tomatoes, cabbage and salsa in the center of each tortilla. Roll up the tacos to serve.
