How to make Lemon-Dill Grilled Grouper with Grilled Vegetable Medley

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F). Clean the grill grates thoroughly with a wire brush and lightly oil them to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the grilled vegetable medley: In a large bowl, combine the trimmed 1 bunch asparagus spears, 1 pint cherry tomatoes, 1 medium zucchini sliced into half-moons, and 1/2 medium red onion cut into wedges.
3. Drizzle the vegetables with 2 tablespoons olive oil, then season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss gently to ensure all vegetables are evenly coated.
4. Place the seasoned vegetables directly on the preheated grill. Grill for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender-crisp and have visible char marks. For smaller items like cherry tomatoes, you may use a grill basket to prevent them from falling through the grates.
5. While the vegetables are grilling, prepare the grouper: Pat the 1.5 lbs grouper fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
6. Brush both sides of the grouper fillets generously with the lemon-dill mixture, ensuring an even coating of flavor.
7. Once the vegetables are nearly done, place the seasoned grouper fillets directly on the clean, oiled grill grates. Grill for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the fish is opaque, flakes easily with a fork, and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
8. Remove both the grilled vegetables and grouper from the grill. Let the grouper rest for 2-3 minutes before serving to allow the juices to settle.
9. Serve the lemon-dill grilled grouper immediately alongside the colorful grilled vegetable medley for a fresh and complete meal. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of fresh dill or a lemon wedge if desired.
