Fish Tacos with Avocado Sauce

Any time I see the word "avocado" in a recipe I know I have to make it.
Don't be fooled or turned away by the fish part- these tacos are delicious!
Fish Tacos with Avocado Sauce

1/4 c. lemon juice
1 T. olive or canola oil
1 lb halibut or tilapia fillets (I used tilapia)
Sauce:
2 medium avocados, divided
2 T. sour cream
2 T. mayonnaise
1/2 T. lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 t. dill weed
1/8 t. cumin
1/8 t. dried oregano
Dash of cayenne pepper
Salsa:
1/2 roma tomato, seeded and chopped
1/4 small red onion, chopped
2 t. jalapeno pepper, more if you want it spicier
1 T. minced fresh cilantro
1 1/2 t. lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1/8 t. salt

In a large resealable bag, combine the lemon juice, oil and garlic. Add the fish; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

For sauce and salsa, peel and cube avocados. In a small bowl, mash 1/4 cup avocado. Stir in the remaining sauce ingredients. Place remaining avocado in a small bowl; stir in the remaining salsa ingredients. Refrigerate sauce and salsa until serving.

Drain fish and discard marinade. Grill fish on med. heat for 4-5 minutes per side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Break fish up into cubes.

Serve with tortillas, salsa and sauce.
