Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ¼ pounds fresh grouper fillets (about one-inch thick, cut into four individual serving size pieces)
1 lemon (zested and juiced)
¾ cup large green olives (rinsed, pitted, and coarsely chopped)
2 tablespoons capers (drained and rinsed)
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ cup Italian parsley leaves (loosely packed and coarsely chopped)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the lemon zest and juice, olives, capers, and three tablespoons of olive oil. Stir to combine, and keep warm. Do not bring to a boil. Do not boil.
  • Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, place the fillets top-side down in the pan and cook three minutes on each side for a total of six minutes. This is for a one-inch-thick fillet. If your fillets are thicker or thinner, they may take more or less time.
  • Using a slotted spatula, transfer the fish to a platter and cover loosely with aluminum foil to rest for about 5 minutes.
  • To serve, top the fish fillets with the olive mixture. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

  • Serve the grouper with a side of rice or vegetables. This will help to complete the meal.
