Ingredients
- For the dressing:
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium tamari or soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
- For the slaw:
- 3 cups shredded cabbage , purple and/or Napa

- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- FOR THE TACOS:
- 8 corn tortillas , warmed
- 12 ounces white fish, lightly salted and grilled (on barbecue or in the oven)

Instructions
- To grill the fish: Heat the grill to medium-high. Be sure the grates are clean and well-oiled or the fish will stick. Place the fish on the hot grill and grill on each side for 2-3 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. The internal temperature of the fish should register between 130-135°F. Let the fish rest for a couple of minutes. Alternately, cook the fish in the oven: Preheat to 450 F, place fish on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, depending on thickness.
- To make the dressing: Whisk the rice vinegar, tamari, honey and sesame oil together in a large bowl. Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, green onions, radish, cilantro and toss to coat.
- To serve, top the warm tortillas with fish, slaw and slices of avocado. Serve immediately with some extra slaw on the side.
