Citrus Grilled Golden Tilefish with Coconut Lime Compound Butter

Author: Robyn

Ingredients

  • One whole golden tilefish= 4 large filets
  • 6-8 lemons- for the grill. Slice in 1/8” pieces
  • the juice and zest of one lime
  • 1 stick butter- let sit out for 30 minutes so it is room temperature
  • cup unsweetened coconut
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Mix the butter, salt, the zest and juice of the lime together with an immersion blender to make the compound butter.
  • Next, preheat your grill to 350 degrees for medium direct heat. Once the grill is heated up, layer the lemon slices in a bed large enough for your 4 filets (this will fill most of the surface area of a kettle grill). Slather the filets generously with the compound butter and place the filets over the lemon slices on the grill. Grill with the lid closed (vents open) for 16-18 minutes or until an instant read thermometer like a thermapen reads 145 degrees.
