Grilled Grouper With Peach Glaze And Corn Salad

A light dusting of lemon-pepper seasoning on the fish provides just the right contrast to the sweetness of the glaze. For an extra kick, coat the grouper with a fiery curry or Cajun spice rub just before grilling. I serve it with Corn Salad.

Type: Fish
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Grouper fillets - (6 to 8 oz ea)
  = (may substitute red snapper or redfish)
2 tablespoons 30mlLemon-pepper seasoning
  Coarse salt - to taste
  Vegetable oil - as needed
  Corn Salad - (see recipe)
  Galze
3   Ripe but firm peaches - peeled, chopped
1 tablespoon 15mlCider vinegar
1/4 cup 49g / 1.7ozGranulated sugar
1 cup 237mlPeach nectar
  = (or white grape juice)

Recipe Instructions

For the Glaze: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the peaches (should be about 2 cups), vinegar, sugar and nectar or juice.

Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the peaches soften and the liquid thickens, 20 to 30 minutes.

Strain the glaze, pressing on the solids with a spatula or the back of a spoon; discard the solids. Set the glaze aside to cool to room temperature. (May cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)

Preheat the grill on high. Pour half of the glaze into a small bowl and set aside; keep the remaining glaze near the grill.

Season both sides of each fish fillet with lemon-pepper and salt to taste.

Lightly brush the grill rack and both sides of the fish with oil. Grill the fish over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes.

Using a long-handled spatula, carefully turn the fish. Baste the grilled side of the fish generously with the peach glaze, discarding the rest of the basting glaze.

Grill the fish until cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and brush lightly with the reserved glaze. Serve with the Corn Salad.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
