Ingredients
  

4 (6 oz) fillets of grouper

1 cup coconut milk

2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated

2 cloves garlic, minced

1-2 teaspoons red pepper flakes (adjust for desired heat)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 tablespoon brown sugar

2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, grated ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes). Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Remove from heat and set aside.

    Cook the Grouper: Season the grouper fillets with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the fillets to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork.

      Plate the Dish: Once the grouper is cooked, carefully place each fillet on a serving plate. Drizzle the spicy coconut-ginger sauce generously over the top.

        Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the sauced grouper and serve with lime wedges on the side for an added burst of freshness.
