PESTO GROUPER



Pesto Grouper image

We love Grouper. Unfortunately, we live in Arizona and fish like this is hard to come by. The local market had some one day - a bit pricey but we decided to splurge. I used my home made pesto on this. The combination of pesto, lemon and garlic is wonderful! Enjoy!
