Aji Amarillo Avocado Tostada

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with the Hass Avocado Board . To prepare this recipe start with raw halibut. By marinating the fish as directed the lime juice “cooks” the fish without actually having to heat it. This preparation method is similar to seafood dishes such as ceviche. We hope that this answers your question and that you will continue to enjoy our Hass Avocado recipes.
