Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 skinless, boneless fillets of fish such as cod, red snapper or tilefish, about 2 1/4 pounds total weight
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 cup fresh grapefruit juice
Salt to taste if desired Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 grapefruit
2 tablespoons olive oil
Maitre d'hotel butter (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler to high.
  • Cut each fillet crosswise in half. Arrange the fish halves close together in one layer in a rimmed baking dish.
  • Blend the coriander, grapefruit juice, salt and pepper. Pour this over the fish, and let stand 10 or 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, peel the grapefruit, cutting away all the white fibrous portions beneath the skin. Cut the flesh into neat sections, cutting between the tough, fibrous white portions. Set the sections aside.
  • Drain the fish fillets. Arrange them on a baking sheet, and rub with oil to coat evenly on both sides. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place under the broiler about 4 inches from the source of heat. Leave the broiler door slightly ajar. Broil the fish for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Spoon the butter over the fish, and let it melt. Arrange the grapefruit sections around the fish, and serve immediately.

This recipe is a keeper! The fish was flaky and moist, and the grapefruit sauce was tangy and sweet. I served it with rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I thought this dish was just okay. The fish was cooked well, but the grapefruit sauce was a bit bland. I would have liked it more if the sauce had more flavor.

This dish was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think it would be better with a milder fish, like cod or flounder.

I followed the recipe exactly and the fish turned out dry and overcooked. The grapefruit sauce was also too tart for my taste. I would not recommend this recipe.

This was a great recipe! The fish was moist and flaky, and the grapefruit sauce was tangy and flavorful. I served it with roasted potatoes and asparagus, and it was a perfect meal. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of grapefruit, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm glad I did! The grapefruit flavor was subtle and not at all overpowering. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great. I used cod instead of tilapia, and it was still delicious. The grapefruit sauce was a bit too tart for my taste, so I added a little honey to sweeten it up. Overall, I'm very happy with this recipe.

I was skeptical about the grapefruit, but it really worked in this dish. The bitterness of the grapefruit balanced out the richness of the fish, and the result was a light and flavorful meal. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

This fish dish was absolutely delicious! The grapefruit added a unique and refreshing flavor that perfectly complemented the delicate tilapia. I will definitely be making this again.
