1. Preheat oven to 400F.

Instructions:

2. Start with a meatier white fish like talapia, basa, haddock or halibut.   Slice length wise and then into 1 to 1 1/2 inch slices.

Instructions:

3. In a small bowl mix the spices and olive oil together.  Place the cut up fish in a plastic bag and add the spice mixture.  Seal bag tightly removing all of the air and then gently massage the fish inside the bag to evenly coat the fish with the spices.  You can make this ahead and let sit overnight if you wish or bake the fish right away.

Instructions:

4. Place seasoned fish pieces on non-stick baking sheet or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 10-12 minutes or until fish is flaky. Remove from oven.

Instructions:

5. Wash and dry Boston lettuce leaves and place 2 leaves on a plate per serving.  Place a 1/4 of the fish over the two lettuce leaves.  Top with a tbsp of pico de gallo per taco, 1 tsp of Mexican lime crema per taco and a tbsp of chopped avocado.  Add hot sauce if you like things spicy!

Instructions:

6. Serve immediately with lots of napkins.
