    Warm tortillas on grill.
    Cut fillets into chunks, or coarsely shred with a fork.
    Divide fish evenly onto 8 warmed tortillas.
    Top each with fruit salsa, a slice of avocado, shredded cabbage, jicama, and top with lime sour cream.
    Lime sour cream:
    Mix sour cream, lime juice and zest in small bowl.
    Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
    *Note: If scotch bonnet or habanero peppers are too hot for your tastebuds, a red jalapeno can be substituted! They are actually quite mild.
    Enjoy!
