LEMON BLACKEN GROUPER

Steps:

• In large skillet melt butter.
• Add garlic salt and pepper
• Let this cook over medium heat for 1 minute, then add grouper or whatever fish you like.
• Let the fish cook until about 3/4 the way done, then put a little butter on top of fish and add blackening seasoning. When fish is done, put on a plate and move to the side and keep it warm.
• Stir in lemon juice into pan drippings. If you need a little more butter and garlic, put some in pan. Then add green onions and mushrooms. Let cook until green onions and mushrooms soak up lemon juice or until done.
• Taste mushroom and if it makes you make a sour face, then you know it's done. If not, add a little more lemon juice.
• Spoon over fish and enjoy.
