Grouper with Jalapeno Tequila Sauce - Recipe

Grouper is my favorite fish and grouper with jalapeno tequila sauce is one of my favorite ways to cook it. Fishing season is getting into full swing here in Florida and my husband likes to fish. There is nothing better than freshly caught fish from the gulf. He is going tomorrow so let's hope he brings some home! I'll be spending the day shopping for Grohe faucets for our potential kitchen redo.
