    • 1 shallot
  • STEP 4

    Halve and pit the avocado; scoop out the flesh, small dice, and add to the bowl.

    Shave the cilantro leaves off the stems; discard the stems and mince the leaves. Add to the bowl.

    Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom.

    • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • STEP 11

    Add fish to the skillet and cook, flipping once, until blackened and can be easily flaked with a fork, about 5 minutes per side.
