BAKED CHILEAN SEA BASS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic powder.
• Arrange sea bass fillets in a stoneware baking dish, with space between them. Use paper towels to pat them dry.
• Brush the fish fillets on both sides with the olive oil mixture. Season both sides with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the sea bass internal temperature reaches 135 to 140 degrees F, or the fish flakes easily with a fork. (For best results, use an instant-read thermometer -- it's done when it reaches 135 to 140 degrees F.)
• Meanwhile, in a very small saucepan (about 5 inches in diameter) over medium-high heat, combine the shallot, wine, & vinegar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for about 3-5 minutes, until the volume is reduced to about 1/4 of the original amount (approximately 2 tablespoons should be left).
• Stir in the heavy cream and lemon zest.
• Reduce heat to low. Add 2-3 cubes of very cold butter, stirring constantly until it melts. Continue to add butter 2-3 cubes at a time, stirring and letting it melt after each addition. Keep heat very low and avoid boiling, or the sauce will separate.
• Season with sea salt to taste.
• Serve sauce over baked sea bass immediately, or keep warm in a thermos or in the hot pan on the stove (with heat turned off) for up to 30-60 minutes. The sauce can split if it overheats or cools too much, so keep it warm but not hot.

ROASTED CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH CHIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the chives in a food processor. Turn on the processor and add the olive oil through the feed tube in a thin steady stream. Season with salt and pepper. Stop to taste, then adjust, adding more oil, chives, salt or pepper as desired. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl and reserve.
• Place the sea bass in a sauté pan or roasting pan just large enough to fit the fillets. Sprinkle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast until the fish is just barely cooked in the center. It will continue to cook once it is removed from the oven. (It should take about 9 minutes per inch of thickness.)
• Transfer the sea bass to serving plates and sprinkle with the chive oil.

MISO AND SOY CHILEAN SEA BASS

Steps:

• Whisk together the sake, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar, and miso paste in a bowl to make the marinade. Place the sea bass in a large sealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the sea bass. Chill in refrigerator 3 to 6 hours. Arrange the fillets on a baking sheet. Discard the marinade.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Prop the oven door to remain slightly ajar.
• Bake the sea bass under the broiler until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 9 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped green onions to serve.

CHILEAN SEA BASS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Place fish in large resealable plastic bag. Add combined dressing and Parmesan cheese; seal bag. Turn bag over several times to evenly coat fish with the dressing mixture. Marinate in refrigerator until ready to use.
• Thread chorizo and garlic evenly onto skewers. Grill 7 to 8 min. or until chorizo is cooked through, turning occasionally. Remove chorizo and garlic from skewers; cut into thin slices. Place in small saucepan. Add tomatoes and oregano; mix well. Bring to boil on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 min., stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, remove fish from marinade; discard bag and marinade. Grill fish 4 to 5 min. on each side or until fish flakes easily with fork. Place fish on individual plates or serving platter; top each fillet with 1/2 cup of the tomato mixture and 2 Tbsp. of the mozzarella cheese.
