Grouper Piccata
- 2-4 large grouper filets
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/3-1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 - 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/3-1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 lemon
- 2-3 tablespoon drained capers
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- Season the fish with salt and pepper, coat with flour, shaking to remove any excess.
- Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, add the fish and saute for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Then turn carefully and saute on the other side for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes or until light brown.
- Remove the fish and place on a warm platter on the bottom rack in a 200-degree oven.
- Add the garlic to the skillet and saute for 10 about seconds, then add the wine to the skillet, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up the yummy browned bits.
- Simmer until reduced by half, stir in the chicken stock and the juice of 1/2 of the lemon.
- Simmer until reduced by half again, adding the capers and simmering for about 1 minute at the end, then remove from the heat and add the butter, stirring until melted.
- Stir in the fresh parsley, spoon out the sauce over the fish and garnish w/thinly sliced lemon (the half you have left from above).
