Steps:
- Make the Salsa: Put the shallot, jalapeño pepper, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and process until finely chopped (a mini food processor is best, but large will work too) Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Add the chopped tomatoes, avocado, salt, lime juice, and cilantro to the bowl and stir to combine. Set aside. (If not using right away, see the make-ahead instructions below.)
- Make the Shrimp: Heat the grill to medium. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the olive oil, chili powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and shrimp. Mix until the shrimp are evenly coated with seasoning. Grease the grill with a wad of paper towels dipped in vegetable oil or non-flammable cooking spray. Place the shrimp on the grill and cook, covered, until just opaque, 1½ to 2 minutes per side. Place the shrimp on a serving platter and cover to keep warm. (I use large shrimp for this recipe so that they don't fall through the grates. If you're worried your shrimp will slip through, you can always thread them on skewers or cook them indoors in a skillet on medium heat.)
- Grill the tortillas until warm and slightly charred, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, heat the tortillas in the microwave according to the package instructions.)
- Fill each tortilla with a spoonful of the avocado salsa, 3 shrimp, and some red cabbage; pass the lime wedges and sour cream at the table. Alternatively, set the warm tortillas, grilled shrimp, avocado salsa, and fixings on the table for everyone to assemble their own tacos.
- Make-Ahead Instructions: The avocado salsa can be made up to 8 hours ahead of time; place a piece of saran wrap inside the bowl and directly over the mixture to prevent discoloration and refrigerate. The shrimp can be tossed with the oil and seasoning, covered, and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead of time.

Steps:
- Place the peppers directly on the burner of a gas stove over high heat or on a grill. Just as each section turns puffy and black, turn the pepper with tongs to prevent overcooking. (If you don't have a gas stove, place the peppers on a baking pan, and broil in the oven, turning as each side becomes charred.) Transfer the peppers to a large bowl, and cover immediately with plastic wrap. Let the peppers sweat until they are cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a work surface. Peel off the blackened skin, and discard. Cut peppers in half and remove seeds.
- Add peppers to the jar of a blender along with avocado, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons water. Blend until smooth; set aside.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Season halibut with remaining salt and pepper. Rub both sides of fish with remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and transfer to grill pan. Cook, turning once, until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from grill and cut into small pieces.
- Divide fish evenly among the tortillas. Place 1 tablespoon chopped onion and 1 tablespoon cilantro leaves over fish. Top each with a piece of tomato. Add salsa and squeeze over lime halves; serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Whisk together the chipotle powder, cumin, orange zest and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss with the salmon and set aside.
- Meanwhile, cut off the tops and bottoms of the oranges with a sharp knife. Place cut-side down, then cut off the peel and white pith. One at a time, hold each orange over a bowl and cut along the membranes to remove the segments, letting them fall into the bowl. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into the bowl. Chop the orange slices into small pieces, then return to the bowl. Add the avocado, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice and a pinch of salt; toss well.
- Lightly oil the grill and add the corn. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred all over, 12 to 15 minutes. After a few minutes, add the salmon to the grill and cook until well marked and charred at the edges, about 2 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. Grill the tortillas until marked and warmed, 20 to 30 seconds per side.
- Cut the corn kernels off the cob and toss with the avocado-orange salsa. Divide the tortillas among plates and top with the salmon, salsa and more cilantro. Serve with the lime wedges.
