1. Set the West Bend^® Platinum Edition™ Non-Stick Electric Skillet to approximately 325°F.
2. Prepare the lemon caper butter by grating a little of the peel of the lemon into a small dish. Add the chives, parsley, and butter. Mix thoroughly and reserve.
3. Pat the grouper dry with a paper towel and place in the prepared baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil and a squeeze of the fresh lemon. Season the filets with the salt, pepper, and a dash of paprika.
