Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Orzo

    In a pot of salted boiling water, cook the orzo according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Grill the Asparagus

    Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill over medium heat until tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sundried tomatoes and capers, cooking for 2-3 minutes. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Season with salt and pepper, and let it simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  4. 4

    Grill the Grouper

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grouper fillets with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    On a plate, place a serving of orzo, top with a grilled grouper fillet, and drizzle the caper cream sauce over the top. Serve with grilled asparagus and a wedge of lemon on the side.
