ingredients

1 1/2 pound grouper fillets
1/3 cup white or gold tequila
1/2 cup triple sec
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 medium tomatoes, diced
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno or Serrano chilies, or more to taste
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 pinch sugar
freshly ground black pepper

directions

Place fish in a dish large enough to hold it in a single layer. Combine tequila, triple sec, lime juice, salt, garlic and 2 tsp. oil and pour over fish, rubbing all over. Cover and marinate for 1/2 hour at room temperature or up to 3 hours in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.

Just before serving, combine tomatoes, onions, chiles, cilantro, sugar and salt to taste. Heat the grill to very hot. Remove fish from marinade, pat dry (reserving marinade) and brush lightly with 1 tsp. oil and grind pepper over the surface. Cook on a greased grill for about 4 minutes per side or until flesh is opaque.

Meanwhile, boil marinade in saucepan for 2 minutes, remove and discard garlic cloves, and spoon a little of it over the fish, Spoon the tomato salsa alongside and serve.

  1. cmc REVIEW:

    This has a wonderful flavor.I did the salsa on the stove carmelizing the onions first. I had a little marinate left and added that to the salsa also.

  2. redfish REVIEW:

    Everyone loved it. Even my brother-in-law who is a great seafood cook thought it was wonderful. Enjoy

  3. jptodd REVIEW:

    Would be a great marinade/sauce for snapper as well.
