PREPARATION
Peel and slice avocado. Place on heat safe surface and char with kitchen torch or by placing under broiler for several minutes. Squeeze fresh lime juice over avocado to prevent browning.
Preheat large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Score skin side of fillets with sharp knife to create hash marks. Season fish on both sides with salt and pepper and lightly coat in cornstarch, dust off excess. Gently place in pan, skin side down, for 3-4 minutes.
