The farm-share delivery service that I subscribe to has recently joined up with a community supported fishery, so now not only can I pick up produce each week, I can also bring home fresh-from-the-Pacific fish.
This past weekend was the first time I had ordered fish through the CSF. Much like the produce box, I didn't know ahead of time what kind of seafood I would receive. When John picked up the produce box, he came home with sea bass, too.
I had never cooked sea bass before, so I searched online for a recipe. I followed this recipe. When I make it again, I will use the following revisions:
Oven-Baked Sea Bass
1 pound sea bass steak
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
fresh basil--I used 1 or 2 tablespoons
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put fish in a glass baking dish. Pour vinegar over fish. In a small bowl, mix garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper, then rub fish with the mixture. Bake for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with basil and bake an additional 5 minutes.
Do you have a favorite fish recipe?
Thanks for fresh fish.
I love fresh fish, but my options are quite limited since I live inland. I am eager to try your recipe on some frozen fish.
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky -- we subscribe to a CSA box but seafood is not an option. But who knows, maybe that will change. I love sea bass and have always just topped it with a heavy dose of lemon pepper, butter and sliced lemons but I will definitely try it your way! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI love fish although, I don't eat it as often as I should.
ReplyDeleteyour recipe sounds easy and delicious. I will probably try it.
I find the best recipes here in blog land.. Love it.
That looks so good...I love fish but have not gotten any in a long time. how lucky for that you can seafood through the CSA awesome!
ReplyDeleteSea Bass is one of my favorites. When I was growing up in San Diego, my parents had a friend who frequently went sport fishing and would share what he caught with us. Lucky you!!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks SO delicious! I'll have to pin this recipe, always looking for yummy fish recipes. I usually make a pesto of olive oil, garlic, ginger, pinch of soy sauce and basil, cilantro and whatever other herbs I have on hand. I top with salt, pepper and sprinkle with Old Bay seafood seasoning, which is heavy paprika.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying out all kind of new things, now that my gastric band is removed and this is one I copied and going to trie once I get home! It looks delicious! Thanks!
