Roast the garlic until is completely blistered (in Mexican cooking means deep color!).

Once the chiles are pliable (10min) drain the water and puree them in a blender with the butter, onion, garlic, salt, lime and orange juices. Rub the fish with the adobo and marinate for 5 min.

Meanwhile, cut the peaches in half and grill until they have nice grill marks. Remove and dice in small pieces. Mix in a bowl with the jalapeño, onion, cucumber, limejuice and salt to taste.

Grill the fish, at medium heat for about 6 minutes or until the

Adobo caramelizes, turn only once! Warm the tortillas, stack 2 tortillas per taco add a piece of fish and top with charred peach salsa. Add an extra squeeze of lime. Enjoy!
