We report an experimental study of second-harmonic generation at a silver diffraction grating when counterpropagating surface plasmons are excited with a single pump beam. In the surface plasmon minigap, no second-harmonic light is observed in the specular direction, whereas a strong signal is detected in the direction normal to the mean plane of the grating.
