Crabmeat Crusted Chilean Sea Bass image

My boyfriend and I just finished having this for dinner -- wonderful!! I had to tweak the original recipe, and what follows is the end result. I'm sure the crust could actually be used on all kinds of fish -- Chilean sea bass is pretty expensive (ours was almost $30/lb), but you could likely substitute any kind of white fish with good results.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb chilean sea bass fillet (we used a fillet about 1 1/2-inch thick)
8 ounces fresh crabmeat
4 -8 ounces unsalted butter (room temperature)
3 ounces panko breadcrumbs (Japanese bread crumbs)
1 ounce chopped parsley
1/4 cup finely-diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup finely-diced yellow bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • To make crabmeat crust, whip butter in electric mixer at high speed until it turns white and fluffy.
  • Add crabmeat, parsley, red and yellow bell pepper, white pepper, salt, cayenne, and lemon juice until fully incorporated.
  • Slowly add Panco while mixing on low speed.
  • Roll crust between parchment paper until 1/2" thick.
  • Remove top layer of parchment paper and lay fish fillet on top of crust.
  • Cut crust along the outline of the filet.
  • Flip fish over onto nonstick baking pan and peel away parchment paper.
  • Broil until golden brown, approximately 3-5 minutes.
  • Finish cooking in 375 degree oven until fish is moist and flaky, approximately 20 minutes.
