Make-Ahead:

The mahi mahi can marinate for up to 6 hours, covered and refrigerated. The pico de gallo can be made up to 2 hours ahead, covered and kept at cool room temperature. 

To marinate the mahi mahi:

Lay the mahi mahi on a platter. Scatter the chopped cilantro and garlic over the fish, then drizzle with the olive oil. Gently massage the marinade into the fish and season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate to marinate for up to 6 hours.

Meanwhile, to make the pico de gallo:

In a medium bowl, stir the tomatoes, onion, jalapeño chile, and cilantro. Season to taste with lemon juice and salt; set aside at room temperature while finishing the tacos.

To make the tacos:

Prepare the barbecue for medium-high heat.

Brush the grill grate with canola oil then place the fish on the grill. Grill the fish until it is cooked through and opaque and golden brown with grill marks, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a cutting board and let rest for 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, warm the tortillas on the grill until they are heated through. Transfer the tortillas to a clean towel to keep warm.

Slice the fish into about 1-inch strips. Divide the fish among the warm tortillas. Top with the cabbage, avocado slices, pico de gallo, and crema. Scatter the cilantro leaves over the tacos. Serve with the lime wedges.
