How to Make Sea Islands Grouper
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons bourbon, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1 tablespoon honey until emulsified.
- Pour the marinade into a shallow dish.
- Add grouper fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Turn the fillets to coat both sides and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 4 hours).
- Pour 1 cup crushed pecans into a separate shallow dish.
- Pour enough olive oil (about 1/4 inch) into a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan to cover the bottom and preheat over medium-low heat.
- Remove grouper fillets from the marinade and gently press each fillet into the pecans, ensuring even coating.
- Carefully place the pecan-coated fillets into the preheated skillet.
- Fry for approximately 10 minutes per side, or until the pecans are golden brown and the grouper is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite sides!
