1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients and ensure the grouper fillet is thawed if previously frozen. Pat the fillet dry with paper towels.
2
Mince the Garlic
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
3
Chop the Parsley
Wash and chop the fresh parsley leaves finely.
4
Zest and Juice the Lemon
Zest the lemon and then cut it in half to juice it. Set the zest and juice aside.

5
Heat the Pan
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
6
Cook the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
7
Season the Grouper
While the garlic is cooking, season the grouper fillet with salt, black pepper, and optional paprika and red pepper flakes if desired.
8
Cook the Grouper
Carefully place the seasoned grouper fillet in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
9
Add Lemon Flavor
During the last minute of cooking, squeeze the lemon juice over the fillet and sprinkle the lemon zest and chopped parsley on top.

Plate the Dish
Once cooked, transfer the grouper fillet to a serving plate and drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top.
11
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
