Preparation
-
Make marinade: in a bowl, whisk the marinade ingredients together.
Put fish fillets in a large plastic zip-lock bag; pour in the marinade.
Press the air out of the bag and seal; turn bag to distribute marinade; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Make the salsa: in a bowl, combine the salsa ingredients; season with more salt and lime juice, if desired.
Remove fillets from bag; discard marinade.
Lightly brush or spray both sides with vegetable oil.
Grill over direct high heat until fish begins to flake, 3-4 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time.
Remove from grill; separate into large flakes with two forks.
Heat tortillas over direct high heat for about 30 seconds without turning; wrap in a kitchen towel to keep warm.
Clean, core, and cut the lettuce into crosswise slices.
Let each person assemble their own fajitas, piling the lettuce and fish on the warm tortillas and topping with the salsa.
