NOTES

• I used ling fillet but any mild white fish will work well for this recipe.
• Feel free to use less or more jalapeño depending on your spice tolerance and taste preference.
• Not a fan of jalapeño? Try this classic[ guacamole ](https://recipes.chloeting.com/recipes/easy-guacamole.html)instead.
• You can prepare cauliflower rice in a big batch to save time. Simply freeze raw cauliflower rice in a large freezer bag and defrost as needed.
