Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal or gas grill.
• Drizzle the fish with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill until barely done, for 2 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness.
• Remove the fish from the grill, let cool slightly, and then pull apart into large flakes.
• Place the tortillas on a work surface.
• Line each with a piece of lettuce and top with chunks of fish.
• Top each with a generous spoonful of Cucumber Salsa, a squirt of lime, and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Garnish with avocado and radishes and serve.
• Cucumber salsa:Place all the ingredients in a bowl, combine well and let stand, covered, for at least 30 minutes.
• Will keep 24 hours refrigerated.
• Note: I always use halibut.
• You can cook it any way you choose, but I normally us a very very hot covered grill and do not turn the fish.
