Broiled Grouper Fillets With Romesco Sauce Recipes

PAUL'S GRILLED GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• In a small bowl combine the butter, garlic, Parmesan, Essence, and olive oil and whisk to combine.
• Lay the fillets on the grill, scale side down, and brush generously with the melted butter mixture. Close the grill cover and cook for 3 minutes. Open and brush again with the melted butter mixture. Repeat this process until the flesh is firm and opaque, for a total cooking time of about 12 to 15 minutes for this size fish. The last minute of cooking time, sprinkle with the fresh herbs. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with Arugula and Orange Salad.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

• In a large salad bowl, combine the arugula, spinach, red onion, and orange segments.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, orange juice, and vinegar. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the oil. Whisk until emulsified and season with salt and pepper.

BROILED GROUPER PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler.
• Place the grouper fillets on a greased baking tray. Brush them with lemon juice. In a small bowl, stir together the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Broil the fillets for 4 to 6 minutes, until they can be flaked with a fork. Remove from the oven and spread the cheese mixture on top of fillets.
• Return to the broiler for an additional 30 seconds, or until the topping is browned and bubbly.

SUPER GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine melted butter and lemon juice in a small bowl. Brush 2 tablespoons of this mixture on a piece of foil placed on the broiler pan.
• Mix together garlic salt, parsley, paprika and white pepper. Sprinkle spice mixture on both sides of fillets.
• Bake fillets until meat flakes, about 10 minutes. Brush fillets again with lemon butter and spread with mayonnaise. Sprinkle with paprika before serving.

BROILED GROUPER FILLETS WITH ROMESCO SAUCE

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Finely grind almonds, bread, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a food processor. Add roasted peppers, vinegar, and salt, then purée, adding oil in a slow stream. Season with black pepper.
• Make fish:
• Preheat broiler.
• Put fish on a lightly oiled shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pan, skin sides down. Brush fish with oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil 3 inches from heat, without turning, until just cooked through, about 7 minutes.

GRILLED HANGER STEAKS WITH ROASTED GARLIC ROMESCO SAUCE

Steps:

• For the romesco sauce: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cut off the top of the garlic just to expose the tips of the cloves. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap tightly in foil and roast until the cloves are golden brown and tender, about 45 minutes. Open the foil and allow the garlic to cool until cool enough to handle, then scoop the cloves out using a fork or knife or squeeze the whole head with your hand, turning it upside down to release the cloves into a small bowl.
• Puree the bread, roasted peppers, almonds, vinegar, dill, parsley, basil, anchovies, tomato and roasted garlic pulp in a blender on high speed, just blending enough so that there is still some texture to the sauce. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the hanger steaks: Preheat a grill on high heat.
• Combine the chile powder, garlic powder, pepper and seafood seasoning in a small bowl. Sprinkle the steaks on all sides with salt, then rub with the spice mixture. Grill the hanger steak on all sides, rotating so the char is even, about 10 minutes for an internal temperature of 125 degrees F or medium-rare. Allow the steaks to rest for 10 minutes.
• Carve the steaks by cutting large pieces against the grain. Serve with a squeeze of lime and the romesco sauce.
