Ingredients

1 lb firm-fleshed white fish fillets
2 cup unsalted chicken broth
2 tablespoon juice from pickled jalapeno peppers
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
1 medium tomato, finely diced
1 large (about 8oz) California avocado, cut into large cubes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
8 corn tortillas 6" (warmed in oven)
1 1/2 cup thinly sliced iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup tomatillo salsa (see recipe)

Instructions

Halve or quarter the fish fillets so they will fit into a medium-sized saucepan. Combine the chicken broth, jalapeno juice and lime juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add the fish pieces and simmer 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the fish cool in the liquid for 30 minutes.

Remove the fish and pat dry with paper towels. Place the fish in a medium-size bowl and break into large flakes with your fingers or a fork. Add the scallions, tomato and avocado cubes then toss gently to mix. Season with the salt and pepper. Arrange 2 tablespoons of the fish filling down the center of each tortilla. Divide the lettuce among the tortillas and top each taco with 1 tablespoon tomatillo salsa.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.
