Best Striped Sea Bass With Blood Oranges And Olives Recipes

STRIPED BASS WITH POTATOES AND OLIVES

Striped Bass With Potatoes and Olives image

From the chef Jonathan Waxman comes this simple, casually elegant dish, ideal for guests but not too fancy for family dinners. Bass fillet (one large piece, or two smaller fillets) is baked atop a bed of thinly sliced Yukon Golds, allowing the juices to soak into the potatoes, permeating them with flavor. A mandoline is useful for slicing the potatoes (watch those fingers!), or the slicing disc on your food processor. If you don't have either of those, a sharp knife will do nicely.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
2 pounds large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick
Sea salt
Ground black pepper
2 pounds wild striped bass fillet, with skin (1 to 2 fillets)
1 cup pitted picholine olives
8 bay leaves
2 lemons, in thin wedges

Steps:

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Use a little oil to brush the bottom of a shallow baking dish that can go to the table and is large enough to hold the fish in one piece. Spread potatoes in dish, overlapping, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake 20 minutes. Remove from oven.
Season flesh side of fish with salt and pepper. Place fish skin side up on the potatoes, sprinkle on remaining oil, scatter olives around and place bay leaves on top. Cover with parchment paper and bake 20 minutes, or until fish is just cooked through at the thickest part (a sharp knife will penetrate easily). Garnish with lemon and serve.

Categories main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 6-ounce skinless striped bass or other firm white fish fillets (about 1 inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 lemon
1 bunch parsley, leaves only (about 1 cup)
5 cloves garlic, smashed
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 baguette, cubed or torn
1 10-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives
3 small tomatoes, quartered

Steps:

Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Season the fish with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the zest from the lemon using a vegetable peeler (reserve the lemon). Combine the lemon zest, parsley, garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. With the motor running, gradually add the bread and pulse several times to make coarse crumbs. Spread the breadcrumbs evenly in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the artichokes, olives and tomatoes around the edge and bake until the exposed breadcrumbs in the middle are toasted, about 15 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Scoop out the toasted breadcrumbs and set aside. Add the fish to the baking dish and top with the toasted breadcrumbs. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cut the reserved lemon into wedges and squeeze on top.
