Grilled Grouper Food

GRILLED GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high (400°F to 450°F). Meanwhile, whisk together 2 tablespoons of the oil, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl. Add grouper fillets, and toss gently to coat. Let stand 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together capers, scallion, lemon zest, thyme, dill, pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Arrange fillets on oiled grill grates; grill, uncovered, until grill marks appear and bottoms of fillets turn opaque, about 4 minutes. Flip fillets, and grill until opaque throughout and fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer fillets to a platter, and drizzle with caper mixture. If desired, garnish with additional lemon zest.
