Florida Gulf Grouper Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare Coconut Rice

   In a saucepan, combine jasmine rice, coconut milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

2. 2

   Cook Green Beans

   In a pot of boiling water, blanch the green beans for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately immerse in ice water to stop cooking. Drain again and set aside.

3. 3

   Prepare Citrus Butter

   In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in orange juice and lemon juice, then add salt and pepper. Keep warm.

4. 4

   Cook Grouper

   Season the grouper fillets with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil. Cook fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

5. 5

   Prepare Fruit Salsa

   In a bowl, combine diced fresh fruit and chopped cilantro. Toss gently and set aside.

6. 6

   Assemble the Dish

   On each plate, serve a portion of coconut rice, top with a grouper fillet, add green beans on the side, drizzle with citrus butter, and garnish with fruit salsa.
