Sea Bass With Spicy Roasted Bell Pepper Sauce image

This is a very versatile sauce. You can pair it with so many things. Use it as a sauce for pasta, as a dip, or as a topping for toasted garlic bread. I'm sure that you will find a use for it all your own. You can roast your own bell peppers, or you can purchase jars of them in the supermarket already roasted and peeled.It goes great with chicken or, of course, the sea bass!
