Gotta Try Captain Buddy's Parmesan Grouper:
Rinse chilled fillets and place in marinade dish. Combine melted butter, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic, and cilantro, in bowl. Brush butter mixture over both sides of fillets and pour the rest in pan and let marinate for 15 minutes. Grill over medium heat only until heated. Turn fillets over and sprinkle parmesan cheese over entire fillets. Grill only a few minutes more. Do Not Over Cook. Fillets should be easy to flake and moist not dry. In a sauté pan over medium heat, warm the remaining 1/2-tablespoon (per serving) of butter or oil and brush over the fillets and squeeze on lemon or lime. Serve immediately. |
