INGREDIENTS

1 ½ pounds of fresh gulf grouper filets

Salt & pepper to taste (you can substitute your favorite seasoning also)

1 cup of banana pepper aioli (you can sub tartar sauce)

1 pack of King’s Hawaiian rolls

Vegetable oil (for grill)

Cheddar cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat your grill to medium high heat.  Make sure the grill is clean and well oiled to prevent the grouper from sticking.  Season your grouper filets w/ salt & pepper and place on hot grill.  Cook these for about 3-4 minutes per side (depending on thickness). While the fish is cooking, slice your rolls in half so they will be ready for a quick toast on the grill.   When finished the grouper filets should be white and flaky.  Remove fish from grill and place your rolls on the grill for a quick toast (this should take about 20 seconds). 

Remove rolls from grill and spread some aioli on both sides of the rolls.  Place cooked fish on bottom half of roll, top with cheese, and place top bun on slider.
