Grill for 2-3 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Reserve for tacos.
Combine the shredded cabbage, green onion, cilantro, and poblano pepper in a medium bowl. Stir to combine.
For Creamy Avocado Tomatillo Salsa, combine avocados and salsa in a blender. Pulse-blend a couple of times, then add lime juice, cilantro, garlic, and sour cream. Process until smooth, scrape into a bowl, and add salt to taste.
