About Fish, grouper, mixed species, raw

Grouper is a large, firm-fleshed saltwater fish found in warm seas, popular for its thick, meaty white fillets and mild, slightly sweet flavor. Its sturdy texture holds together well, which has made it a favorite for grilling and for the fish sandwiches of the southern United States.

Grouper is lean and protein-rich, with about 92 calories per 100 grams raw, close to 19 grams of protein and only a gram of fat. It is an excellent source of selenium and supplies vitamin B12 and phosphorus. Being large and long-lived, grouper can accumulate more mercury than small fish, so it is best enjoyed as part of a varied selection of seafood rather than eaten very frequently.

The dense flesh is forgiving on the grill and equally good baked, pan-seared or used in chowders and stews. Its mild flavor pairs well with citrus, tomato, capers and bold Caribbean and Mediterranean seasonings.
