Seafood must be drained well before cooking.
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400 degress.

In a small frying pan, saute seafood quickly in olive oil just until the edges are lighly browned.

Remove and set aside.

Add remaining olive oil and simmer vegetables for 2-3 minutes or until they just begin to soften.

Add spices and just enough water to create a sauce.

Add seafood to vegetables, being careful to not crush chunks of fish.

Fill tortillas with the vegetable-seafood mix and arrange in a baking pan, coated with olive oil.

Sprinkle with cheese and bake for 10 minutes @400 degrees.

Serve over Spanish rice.
