Preparation

Step 1

1. In a 13x9 inch baking dish, whisk the first five ingredients. Add fillets; turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, 30 minutes

2. Drain fish and discard marinade. On an oiled grill rack, grill mahi mahi, covered over medium-high heat (or broil 4 in. from heat) until it flakes easily with a fork, 4-5 minutes per side. Remove fish. Place tortillas on grill rack; heat through, 40-45 seconds. Keep warm.

3. To assemble, divide fish among the tortillas, layer with red cabbage, cilantro and, if desired, salsa verde. Squeeze a little lime juice over fish mixture; drizzle with hot sauce. Fold sides of tortilla over mixture. Serve with lime wedges and additional pepper sauce.
