Start by preparing the citrus marinade. Juice the lime and orange into a small bowl. Add minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until well combined.
Place the sole fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
While the fish marinates, prepare the vegetable salsa. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, avocado, and jalapeño. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss gently to coat. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Remove the sole fillets from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the fillets in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
To serve, place a cooked sole fillet on each plate and spoon the vegetable salsa generously over the top. Garnish with additional cilantro and a wedge of lime, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful Southwestern dish!
