Baja Alaska Cod Tacos
If you travel to sunny San Diego or Mexico's Baja region, you will find hundreds of restaurants and food stands offering fish tacos. Here the fish is sautéed, but for an extra smoky flavor try grilling it.

2 lb. fresh oranges, peeled and segmented
1 lb. 8 oz. California avocados, peeled and pitted

4 oz. sliced green onions
4 oz. chopped cilantro

6 lb. Alaska cod fillets
6 oz. olive oil
Lemon-pepper seasoning, to taste
4 oz. fresh lime juice

2. Per order, sauté each cod fillet in 1⁄2 tbsp. oil; season with lemon-pepper and 2 tsp. lime juice. Break cod into chunks.
