Bonefish Grill: A Delicious Recipe & Giveaway

Bonefish Grill is quite possibly my favorite seafood restaurant. I have been a fan for years, in fact, the first Bonefish Grill is located in my hometown.

Everything on Bonefish Grill’s menu is delish, but I especially love their Ahi Tuna and Bang Bang Shrimp.

Bonefish Grill’s founder Tim Curci now shares some of his culinary journeys from sea to table in a brand new series of five Webisodes.

Today I am going to share with you “Kate’s Grouper”, a delicious lemon butter fish dish that Tim named after his daughter.

You can follow the video below, and then print out the recipe to make and enjoy with your family.

“Kate’s Grouper”
Presented by Tim Curci at Bonefish Grill
Serves 4 to 6 people

Grouper Breading Ingredients
•    1 qt.     Bread Crumbs
•    ½ c.     Fresh Chopped Parsley
•    1 c.         Powdered Parmesan Cheese
•    ¼ c.     Fresh Chopped Garlic
•    1 tbs.     Salt
•    1 tsp.     Black Pepper
•    4 – 8oz.    Fresh Grouper Filets
•    8 oz     Unsalted Butter (about 2 sticks)

Lemon Butter Sauce Ingredients
•    1 tbs.     Fresh, Chopped Garlic
•    1 tbs.     Fresh, Chopped Shallots
•    2 tbs.     White Wine (preferably Chablis)
•    3 tbs.     Fresh Lemon Juice
•    ½ lb.     Cold Unsalted Butter
•    1 pinch    Salt

Cooking/Topping Ingredients
•    1 bag    Oak Wood Chips
•    12         Artichoke Hearts
•    1 tsp.     Fresh Basil (cut into strips)

GROUPER BREADING PROCEDURE
Mix bread crumbs, parsley, powdered parmesan cheese, garlic, salt and pepper very well and place in freezer until ready to use.

Slowly melt butter in a small skillet.  Let melted butter cool to room temperature.  Brush butter heavily and entirely over each grouper filet.

Remove breading from freezer and pour 1 cup into a wide pan.  Gently roll grouper in breading covering entire fish.  Repeat as necessary.

Place breaded grouper in a flat pan lined with wax paper and place in refrigerator for one hour.

LEMON BUTTER SAUCE PROCEDURE
Place all lemon butter sauce ingredients into a sauce pan on low heat.  Reduce ingredients by half. (Except butter? Is butter added in the next step? What liquid is being reduced?)

Slowly add butter (in ¼ inch squares) and continually swirl with a wire whip on low heat.  Temperature should be maintained at 110 degrees Fahrenheit before serving.

Add salt and strain sauce in a small pan to remove all particulates.   Sauce should be creamy and smooth.

COOKING PROCEDURE
Add oak wood chips to grill.  Heat grill to medium heat. It is important that grill is not overheated.

Oil grill and gently place grouper.  Cook until grouper reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (about 6 minutes on each side).

While cooking the grouper, place artichoke hearts on grill to heat.

Place all grilled grouper onto a large platter.  Top each piece of fish with 3 artichoke hearts and 7 to 8 strands of fresh basil.

Top the grouper, artichokes, and basil with lemon butter sauce.  Serve hot.
