Instructions
- Preheat a covered grill to medium-high, about 425°F. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces, slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/2-inch planks, dice the tomato and onion, mince the garlic, chop the parsley, and zest and juice the lemon. Soak the raisins in the red wine vinegar for 10 minutes while you finish prepping.
- Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, half the oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon water on a large sheet of heavy-duty foil. Seal into a packet and grill, covered, for 20–25 minutes, turning once, until tender.
- Combine the soaked raisins and vinegar with the tomato, onion, garlic, capers, half the parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Season the agrodolce with a pinch each of salt and pepper, then set aside.
- Pat the rockfish dry. Brush a fresh sheet of heavy-duty foil with a little of the remaining oil and place the fish on top. Brush the fish with more oil and season it with the lemon zest, remaining oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Toss the zucchini with the rest of the oil and remaining salt.
- Grill the zucchini directly on the grates for 3–4 minutes per side until tender and well marked. At the same time, place the foil with the rockfish on the grill, close the lid, and cook without turning for 6–10 minutes, until the fish flakes easily and reaches 145°F at its thickest point.
- Carefully open the potato packet, allowing the steam to escape. Toss the potatoes with the remaining parsley and a squeeze of lemon, then let the rockfish rest for 2 minutes.
- Divide the grilled zucchini and potatoes between two plates. Lift the rockfish from the foil, portion it between the plates, and spoon the bright tomato-caper agrodolce over the top.
