This was so delicious! I did substitute fresh Alaskan cod in place of the grouper. It was quite spicy...almost too spicy for my 12yo son, but I enjoyed it very much. The recipe called for lemon, but in the description, it called for lime...so I used lime wedges. I'm INDUBITABLY making this again....and again...and again!
Blackened Grouper
Lee Harrelson
This blackened grouper recipe has some heat but the lime juice adds a refreshing zest. Be careful when adding the fish to the pan, as the butter and oil may splatter.
