Prepare the mango and avocado jalapeno salsa by combining one jalapeno, one ripe red tomato, fresh mango, half an avocado, and half a chopped red onion in a bowl.

Squeeze the juice of one whole lime into the salsa mixture and mix well.

Refrigerate the salsa to let the flavors meld.

Season the chilean sea bass with paprika, cumin, and chili powder, blackening one side only to avoid excessive saltiness.

Heat a cast iron skillet on high and add two tablespoons of vegetable oil.

Place the seasoned fish in the hot skillet, spicy side down, and cook until blackened.

Flip the fish to cook the other side until thoroughly cooked through.

Warm the fat-free flour tortillas in the microwave or on the skillet.

Assemble the tacos by placing the blackened fish on the tortilla and topping with the mango avocado jalapeno salsa.
