These Grilled Key West Fish Steaks offer a delightful balance of sweet, savory, and zesty citrus flavors. The white fish, such as halibut or grouper, is marinated in a blend of teriyaki sauce, lime, and orange juice, which tenderizes the meat and infuses it with aromatic depth. Grilling gives the steaks a beautiful char while keeping the interior moist and flaky. This dish is incredibly versatile, suitable for a quick weeknight meal or an elegant summer barbecue. The simplicity of the ingredients allows the fresh quality of the fish to shine through. Serve with grilled vegetables or a light salad for a complete, satisfying meal that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
