Combine first 8 ingredients in a bowl. Add fish; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.

Wrap tortillas in foil. Place fish and tortillas on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill fish, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

The fish marinade and relish both had excellent flavor. I used tillapia and baked it in the oven instead of the grill- it tasted fine. I added black beans to the relish and sprinkled it with cheese. Delicious!02/16/09

I would have given four stars, but the description reads: "worthy of a special occasion" and this is not a special occasion dish -- it's a very casual comfort food dish. The spice on the fish was very very good. The tomato relish was fresh and light. I made it with tilapia and it worked great. A great dish for a casual and light weeknight dinner.01/22/09
