Broiled Parmesan Grouper

This is a quick fix meal.  My brother caught a huge grouper, so that's how this recipe is making an appearance on the blog.  I found this on www.allrecipes.com.  I made a few adjustments.  
Ingredients:
  • 2 lbs. fresh grouper fillets
  • 2 T. lemon juice (juice of one lemon)
  • ½ T. kosher salt
  • 1 t. black pepper
  • ¼ C. mayonnaise
  • ½ C. Parmesan cheese, grated
  • ¼ C. (1/2 stick) butter, softened
  • 1 T. Crystal hot sauce
  • 2 T. fresh dill, chopped
Directions:
  1. Preheat broiler to high.
  2. Cover a baking dish or cookie sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  3. Place the grouper fillets on the sheet and squeeze the lemon juice over the fillets.  Season with the salt and pepper.
  4. Broil for 4 – 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets (they should begin to flake with the pressure of a fork).
  5. Combine the remaining ingredients together and reserve.
  6. Remove from the broiler and spread the cheese mixture over the fillets and return to the broiler for 1 minute or until brown and bubbly.
  7. Remove and serve hot.
Tips and Tricks:
  • A 1 inch fillet is the perfect thickness for this recipe.  If your fillets are thicker (mine were), you may need to allow them to cook longer.
  • Any fresh herb will work with this recipe.  Dill gives the fish a nice fresh flavor.
