Best Sea Bass With Ginger Sauce Recipes

PAN SEARED CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH ASIAN MARINADE

Steps:

• Prep: Prep the sea bass by patting it dry with a paper towel. Flip it skin side up and score the skin by making shallow cuts with a knife.
• Marinate: Add all the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl or a resealable plastic bag. Add the sea bass and massage the marinade into the fish. Let it marinade on the counter for 15 minutes. See Note 1.
• Heat pan: Heat a non-stick pan over medium to medium low heat and add a bit of vegetable oil to the pan. See Note 2. Once the pan is heated, scrape off any excess marinade and place the fillets skin side down. Leave it alone until it starts sizzling and rendering out fat. Leave the pan uncovered. Lightly press down with the flat side of your spatula for a few seconds. Let the skin continue cooking until very crispy. Depending on thickness, times will vary. Mine took 4 to 5 minutes. Check halfway through and lower the heat if necessary to avoid burning the skin.
• Flip: Flip the fish and cook it skin side up until the flesh is opaque and easily flakes apart. Do not cover the pan with a lid as the steam will soften up the skin. See Note 3.
• Serve: Plate the sea bass crispy skin side up and serve immediately with lemon wedges and herbs.

STEAMED SEA BASS IN HOT BEER AND GINGER LIME SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the bass: Either drape some of the ginger and spring onion strips across the fish or tuck them within the scores in the skin. Then, stuff the rest inside the cavity of the fish. Set the bass on a heatproof plate or dish and pour over the rice wine or sherry. Place the plate inside a large bamboo steamer and cover. Then, secure the steamer on top of a pan of boiling water, making sure the water does not touch the base of the steamer. Steam the fish for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of the fish, until its flesh flakes when poked with chopsticks. Turn off the heat and leave the fish in the steamer.
• To make the sauce: Heat the groundnut oil in a large pan or wok. Add in the ginger, and stir-fry for a few seconds, then add the lime zest, followed by the beer, and soy sauce. Stir and, as the liquid comes to the boil, add the spring onions and cilantro. At this point, switch off the heat immediately.
• Remove the plate and fish from the bamboo steamer, pour the sauce over the fish, and serve immediately with some steamed rice.
• If you don't have a large enough steamer, place the fish on a heatproof plate, and put on a roasting rack in a pan. Put the pan in the oven, and carefully pour boiling water into the pan. Cover with foil, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes at 400 degrees F, or until the flesh flakes when poked and has turned opaque.

STEAMED SEA BASS WITH SCALLIONS AND GINGER

Steps:

• Put the fish in a shallow heatproof dish, such as a large baking pan. Season lightly with salt and pepper, inside and out. Disperse the scallions and ginger on top, underneath, and inside the fish. Combine the soy sauce, peanut oil, sesame oil, and sugar in a bowl. Pour the mixture over the fish.
• Set a roasting rack in a large roasting pan. Fill the pan with water that comes up below the rack. Set the pan over 2 burners and bring the water to a boil. Set the baking dish with the fish on the rack, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cover the roasting pan tightly with foil. Steam the fish until a small knife or skewer can be easily inserted into the thickest part and the fillet comes off the bone fairly easily, 6 to 7 minutes.

GINGER & SOY SEA BASS PARCELS

Steps:

• In a jug, mix together the wine or sherry with the soy, spring onions, garlic and ginger, then set aside. Lightly score the skin of each sea bass fillet a couple of times.
• Lay a square of foil on your work surface with a square of baking parchment the same size on top. Put 3 pak choi quarters just off centre of the paper and top with a quarter of the shredded carrot followed by a sea bass fillet, skin-side up. Spoon over a quarter of the ginger, onion and garlic mixture (don't add the rice wine and soy mixture yet). Fold over the parcel so it becomes a triangle, then, from left to right, begin to seal it by scrunching the edges together. Continue all the way around until there is just a little hole at the end. Pour a quarter of the soy mix through the hole. Scrunch the remaining bit to seal and place on a baking tray. Repeat until all the fish are wrapped, sauced and sealed. Can be prepared a day ahead and chilled.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and cook the fish on the tray for 15 mins. Remove from the oven and divide the parcels between four warmed plates. Let your guests open them up themselves so they get a hit of aromatic steam before they tuck in. Pass around some chilli, spring onion and ginger strips to sprinkle over.
