Steps

  1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  2. Coat the fish fillets with the marinade and let them sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.
  4. While the fish is cooking, prepare the lettuce leaves, sliced tomatoes, red onion, and avocado.
  5. Once the fish is ready, assemble the burger by placing a piece of fish on a lettuce leaf, topping it with tomatoes, onions, and avocado.
  6. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
