Best Chilean Sea Bass With Lobster And Mango Cream Sauc Recipes

PAN SEARED CHILEAN SEA BASS

Steps:

• Cut SEA BASS filet down the center to create 2 pieces (1/2 lb. each). Allow to rest 20 minutes at room temp to remove chill.
• Heat OLIVE OIL in skillet over medium-high until it reaches the smoke point.
• Place sea bass (skin side down) in the hot skillet. Sprinkle SALT and PEPPER over the filet.
• If you want crispy skin, press the filet down firmly with a spatula until it becomes visibly crispy. Turn the filet over and allow the non-skin side to sear until the filet is opaque throughout, reducing heat a notch or two as needed.
• Transfer the filet to a plate and allow to rest a few minutes.
• Serve sea bass warm with your favorite salad and side dish. Suggested: serve over salad greens topped with Chimichurri Sauce (see recipe in footnotes).

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.
