*Macronutrients below include fruit and nut garnish
Instructions
1. In blender, puree blackberries.
2. In medium-heavy saucepan, heat wine, blackberry puree, cornstarch and lemon peel over medium heat. Simmer 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture starts to thicken. Remove from heat. (Sauce will thicken further.)
3. Pour 1/2 cup in small container - for use as marinade.
4. Heat grill to medium-high. Lightly wipe with vegatable oil. (Too heavy will burn the fish.)
5. Season fish with salt and pepper.
6. Grill 4-5 minutes each side - brushing fish with marinade.
7. Insert metal skewer through side of fish to center. If inserts easily, fish is done. Remove from grill.
