Instructions
- Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tbsp lime juice, 2 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp olive oil, and 3 minced garlic cloves until well combined to form the citrus glaze.
- Step 2: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Brush 4 grouper fillets on both sides with half of the citrus glaze and season with 1 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Step 3: Grill the grouper fillets for 4-5 minutes per side until opaque and flaky, brushing with remaining glaze halfway through grilling to build a shiny, sticky finish.
- Step 4: While the fish grills, toss 4 cups mixed greens, 1/4 cup chopped parsley, 1/4 cup chopped basil, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion with 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt to create a fresh herb salad.
- Step 5: Serve the grilled grouper fillets atop the herb salad immediately, spooning any remaining glaze from the grill over the fish for extra flavor.
