Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine grapefruit, avocado, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and lime juice in a bowl. Season with salt.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Season halibut generously with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden and flaky, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove and let cool slightly, then flake with a fork.

3. Toast tortillas over the flame of a gas burner, turning, until lightly charred, about 1 minute. Top with fish, salsa, and cabbage, dividing evenly. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.
