This spiced fish is served on a fresh corn tortilla with pickled red onion, Baja cream and slaw and a spoonful of your favorite (store-bought or homemade) tomato salsa. This dish has a few elements, and most can be made ahead. I personally fell in love with the pickled onion, and once I started adding them to all my daily salads, I began making them in bigger and bigger batches.
