Turn heat lower to medium-low and simmer the grain until tender, about twenty minutes.
As the grain is working, season the fish filets on sides using the lime zest, grill seasoning, cumin and coriander.

Top them off after some from the quick slaw and a few avocado sauce. Serve each individual 3 tacos and a few eco-friendly grain, and revel in!
