Y’all, let me tell you about this mouthwatering Florida-inspired dish that’s been making waves in my kitchen! As a Florida girl who loves adding a little coastal flair to dinner time, I’ve perfected this Citrus-Glazed Grouper with Mango-Avocado Salsa that’ll make you feel like you’re dining at a fancy beachfront restaurant.
Trust me, honey, this isn’t your average fish dinner. This is the kind of meal that’ll have your family thinking you’ve been taking secret cooking classes!
What You’ll Need:
– 4 fresh grouper fillets (about 6 oz each)
– 2 oranges
– 2 limes
– 2 ripe mangoes, diced
– 1 ripe avocado, diced
– 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
– Fresh cilantro
– Honey
– Butter
– Your favorite seafood seasoning
– Salt and pepper
Ladies (and gents), let’s get cooking!
First things first, pat those grouper fillets dry and season them with your seafood seasoning. Meanwhile, whisk together the juice of 1 orange, 1 lime, and 2 tablespoons of honey for your glaze.

Now, in a large skillet, melt that butter until it’s nice and bubbly. Add your grouper and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side. During the last minute, pour that citrus glaze over the fish and let it caramelize. Oh my word, the smell is heavenly!
For the salsa (which is honestly so good I could eat it with a spoon), combine your diced mango, avocado, red onion, cilantro, and the remaining orange and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate your grouper and top it with a generous helping of that tropical salsa. I like to serve mine with coconut rice and grilled asparagus on the side.
Y’all, this dish is giving me all the Florida vibes! It’s fresh, it’s fancy, and it’s absolutely fabulous. Plus, it only takes about 30 minutes from start to finish – perfect for those nights when you want to impress but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen.
