Number Of Ingredients 15

For the Sea Bass:
4 sea bass fillets, pin bones removed
Coarse sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Zest of 1 lemon, plus 4 lemon wedges, for serving
2/3 cup pomegranate seeds (from about half a pomegranate)
For the Green Tahini Sauce:
2/3 cup tahini
2/3 cup water
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup tightly-packed flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Generously season fish with salt and pepper, then lay it, skin-side down, on baking sheet. Drizzle fillets with oil, place in oven and bake until firm and skin bounces back when poked with a finger, 6-7 minutes. Meanwhile, make green tahini sauce: Process all ingredients, except parsley, in a food processor or blender until smooth. If too thick, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and process until desired consistency is reached. Add parsley and process 2 seconds more. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Place 1 fillet and 1 lemon wedge on each plate and spoon ½ of tahini sauce generously over top of fillets. (Leftover sauce can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.) Garnish with parsley, lemon zest and pomegranate seeds.
