Ingredients

For Grilled Grouper

For Franchised Grouper

Preparation

For Grilled Grouper

1. Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

2. Marinate the Fish

Place the grouper fillet in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

3. Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

4. Grill the Grouper

Remove the grouper from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the fillet on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

5. Garnish and Serve

Remove the grilled grouper from the grill, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.

For Franchised Grouper

6. Prepare the Breading Station

Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

7. Season the Flour

Add salt and black pepper to the flour and mix well.

8. Bread the Grouper

Dredge the grouper fillet in flour, shaking off excess, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs.

9. Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat until hot.

10. Fry the Grouper

Carefully place the breaded grouper fillet in the hot oil and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

11. Serve

Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

For Puttanesca Style Grouper

12. Sauté Garlic

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

13. Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

Stir in canned diced tomatoes, chopped olives, capers, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt to taste. Simmer for 5-7 minutes.

14. Add the Grouper

Gently place the grouper fillet into the skillet, spooning some sauce over the top. Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

15. Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle chopped fresh basil over the top and serve hot with crusty bread.
