  1. Put the swordfish on a flat surface and cut away the skin and any dark parts. Cut into 1/2-inch dice and put in a bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the lemon juice, 1/4 cup of the lime juice and the salt. Stir to mix well. Refrigerate for at least one hour, stirring once or twice.

  2. Drain the liquid from the fish using a strainer. Return the fish to the bowl and add the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lime juice, red bell pepper, jalapeno and green onions. Stir to mix well. Season with additional salt if needed. Gently stir in the avocado and spoon onto the tortilla chips. Arrange a cilantro leaf on each and serve.
