Computed from USDA FoodData Central SR Legacy (April 2018) per-100g values applied to ingredient gram weights derived from stated recipe quantities (grams used directly) or from USDA SR Legacy food_portion.csv household measures (tbsp/tsp/clove/'medium' item references) where recipe used volume/count units — see 'calculation' lines for each ingredient's basis. LOWER-BOUND ONLY: 'salt and pepper'/unspecified salt, unspecified sauces/dressings, and garnish-only items were excluded per instructions (no gram quantity given), so actual sodium (and to a lesser extent kcal/fat/carbs from such omissions) is almost certainly higher than shown. Unspecified/omitted ingredients: coriander and lime wedges: quantity unspecified (null) — EXCLUDED from macro totals (no gram amount given; 'salt' terms excluded per instructions as added salt is unspecified, not assumed)

Calculation sources
  • yellowtail, cut into strips: 170.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 175163 (Fish, yellowtail, mixed species, raw); raw fillet weight basis (recipe quantity = raw portion weighed before cooking)
  • small tortillas: 98.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 167535 (Tortillas, ready-to-bake/-fry, flour); USDA portion 1 tortilla = 49 g x q=2. 'Small' tortilla size not separately available — likely OVERSTATES mass/macros if smaller than standard tortilla.
  • red cabbage, shredded: 40.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 169977 (Cabbage, red, raw)
  • mayo mixed with lime juice: 13.8 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 171009 (Salad dressing, mayonnaise, regular); USDA portion 1 tbsp = 13.8 g. Lime juice mixed in not separately quantified (q covers mayo base only).
  • smoked paprika: 1.1 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 171329 (Spices, paprika); USDA portion 1 tsp = 2.3 g
  • avocado, sliced: 37.5 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 171705 (Avocados, raw, all commercial varieties); USDA 'whole fruit' reference weight = 150 g x q=0.25
