Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. For the sauce: Heat the 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the red peppers and sauté for 5 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  2. Add the oregano, lemon zest, chili powder, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and sauté for 2 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to boiling. Then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare the sides. Add the jicama to a medium bowl and sprinkle it with the lime juice and chili powder; set aside.
  4. Add the shallot-pepper sauce to a blender and purée until smooth. Set aside.
  5. Sprinkle the fish with the salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the fish fillets and sear for about 5 minutes per side. Reheat the pepper sauce in a small saucepan, if necessary. Serve the fish on top of a pool of the sauce, with 1 tortilla and 1/2 cup jicama per serving.
