HERB-CRUSTED GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a jelly roll pan: Line it with foil and place a cooling rack on top. Cut the grouper into 4 good-sized steaks (about four 4-6 oz. servings). Season both sides with salt and pepper and set on a cooling rack.
• Prepare rub: Combine herbs, cheese and olive oil. The rub should have a paste-like consistency. If the mixture is too wet, add more cheese, and if the mixture is too dry, add more olive oil. Rub the mixture on the top of the fish, and place in oven.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the topping is browned, and the fish is done. Serve with wild rice and steamed vegetables.
