Donna's Grilled Grouper & Lemons and Roasted Autumn Vegetables

Hello Everyone!  With autumn in the air, I selected some more traditional seasonal vegetables to make a balsamic flavored, roasted medley to accompany grilled grouper for a simple weekend supper.  This grouper recipe is grilled instead of roasted but is basically the same ingredients as my Roasted Fresh Ocean Grouper recipe (see 26 April 2015 blog post) with the addition of the grilled lemons - which add a nice twist (pun intended!).  Best, Donna:

Donna's Grilled Grouper & Lemons

Ingredients:

One 3½ - 4 pounds fresh ocean grouper fillet

Old Bay Seasoning

Lemon Pepper

Salt

¼ pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

1 lemon, halved

Method:

Preheat grill to 400 degrees F.  Using heavy foil, make a pan to hold the fish and spray with cooking oil.  Add fillet and season with Old Bay, lemon pepper and salt to taste.  Dip the lemons into the butter and place on grill.  Then add foil pan with fish onto grill, and slowly pour melted butter over top of fish.  Grill for 15 minutes or until cooked through.  Remove and serve with charred lemons squeezed over top of fish.

Serves 4 – 6.
