    3. In a small bowl, mash avocado. Add diced tomatoes and red onion and combine well. Season with salt and lime juice. Set aside in fridge.

    4. Once fish is marinated for an hour, on a small plate, evenly spread Chief collagen powder with a pinch of salt. You may like to add extra seasonings here. Coat marinated fish in collagen powder.  

    5. Heat 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan over high heat. Cook fish for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through and crispy. Set aside. 

    6. Gently warm tortillas. Assemble your tacos by placing a piece of crispy fish down and topping with pickled cabbage, guacamole and a drizzle of collagen dressing. Top with pickled jalapenos, a drizzle of crispy chilli oil and fresh coriander.
