GRILLED SEA BASS FILLETS: BRANZINO AI FERRI
Steps:
- Prepare the sea bass by snipping off the side and back fins with a strong pair of scissors. With a fish scaler or large, strong knife, scrape off the scales. This is best done by holding the fish by the tail in a sink and scraping downward. It is essential to do this thoroughly. Clean the fish by running a sharp knife up from the base of the belly to the head. Remove the innards and rinse the fish well.
- To cut into fillets, lie the fish on its side and, using a sharp filleting knife, carefully slice along the backbone, from tail to head, keeping close to the bones with the blade so as not to waste any flesh. Then cut downward around the head, which will enable you to remove the fillet. Repeat this on the other side of the fish.
- Place the fillets skin side down and run your hand over them to check for any bones. Pull out any that remain using tweezers. Cut each fillet into 3 equal portions.
- Lightly brush the pieces of fish with oil, season well with salt and pepper, and grill for 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked.
- Serve with lemon.

GRILLED SEA BASS WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE AND BROCOLLI PUREE
Steps:
- Grilled Sea Bass with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce and Brocolli Puree 1. Heat the oil in a sauté pan. Add the shallot and cook until soft. Deglaze with white wine and cook one minute. Add the stock and the cooked red pepper. Cook 5 minutes. Cool slightly, and purée in the blender. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice, and transfer to a small saucepan to reheat in a few minutes. 2. Cook the fish: Season the filets with salt and pepper. Heat the butter and oil in a skillet. Fry on both sides until golden and cooked through, about four minutes per side. Serve on a bed of broccoli purée with red pepper sauce alongside. Puree 1. Bring a pot of water to the boil. Cut the florets off the broccoli stem in even sizes. Peel the stem and slice thinly. Slice the leek into rings and rinse well. Salt the boiling water, as for pasta, and add the broccoli and leek. Cook until very tender, about 10 minutes. Drain. Drop in the butter and purée with an immersion blender. Taste and adjust the salt. Add pepper, lemon juice and zest. Serve hot as a bed for fish. Sauce 1. Make the sauce. Heat the oven to 400°F/200°C. Set the peppers on a baking sheet and roast until the flesh is soft and the skin puckered, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and put in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Set aside 10 minutes to sweat. Remove the wrap, peel and seed the pepper. Cut the flesh into pieces and set aside.
SEA BASS GRILLED IN CORN HUSKS WITH COMPOUND BUTTER
This recipe is from a Cuisine magazine. Cooking fish in corn husk packets poaches and steams the fish so that you don't have to turn it over. The corn husks also make a neat presentation since the fish is served in the packet. Note: I have included the nutritional breakdown in the recipe because Zaar is calculating based on the 3 butter recipes included. You will only use 2 tsp. butter per fish, but I am including 3 choices which all work well with this fish. These compound butters can be made in advance and can be frozen and cut into medallions as needed. When these butters melt, they become a sauce, not just melted butter and taste good on a variety of meats, vegetables and pasta.

Steps:
- To make the Compound Butter -- Beat room temperature butter with a fork until creamy. Once it is smooth, add remaining ingredients and blend until all the ingredients are distributed evenly throughout the butter. Place a square of plastic wrap (like Saran Wrap) on the counter and mound the butter in a line down the center. Shape the butter into a cylinder and wrap the plastic around the butter, rolling it back and forth to shape. Twist the ends tightly and pull them at the same time, this forms a perfectly round, smooth log. Refrigerate or freeze until firm.
- To prepare the fish -- Soak 12 of the larger outer husks in hot water for 5 minutes. Put two soaked husks on work surface, one on top of the other. The two layers will keep the fish from burning. Place fish fillet centered in the cradle of the husk.
- Season the fish well with salt and pepper. Now, place a slice of compound butter (approx. 2 tsp.) on top of the fish.
- Place another husk on top of the fish and tuck into bottom husk. Make the pouch as gap-free as possible. Secure both ends of the packet with soaked cotton string.
- Grill packets over medium heat. They'll poach and steam in the packets so you don't need to turn them over.
- Cook about 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
- To serve, present fish in the grilled corn husk. Remove one knot and pull back top husk (like it's on a hinge).
- Doneness: If you're unsure about the timing test for doneness, use an instant read thermometer. Insert it through the packet into the thickest part of the fish. It's done when temp hits 125 - 130°F.

GRILLED SEA BASS
Steps:
- Whisk Teriyaki, honey and olive oil together until combined. Place fish in zip lock bag. Add the marinade and marinate, refrigerated for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours which makes the flavoring wonderful. Remove fish from fridge, keeping bag sealed about 15 to 20 minutes before grilling. Heat grill to medium low. Spray or coat grill grates generously with olive oil to prevent fish from sticking. Spraying the spatula with olive oil also helps prevent the fish from falling apart when turning. Grill fish about 6 minutes per inch of thickness, turning once until a table knife inserts across the grain without resistance. Fish should be oily and opaque. I turn up the heat a bit near the end to caramelize some of the residual marinade. Serve immediately. Alternative preparation: vacuum seal the fish and marinade (or seal in the ziplock bag using the water method of excluding air from the ziplock bag. Marinate for time as above. Sous vide at 114.8 degrees F until it reaches an internal temperature of 113 (about 35 min. for ¾ inch thick pieces). Can be held at 113 for about 15 minutes (I haven't tried more). Sear/carmelize briefly with blow torch (use MAPP gas one for higher heat) or sear to caramelize in a lightly oiled hot pan (use canola oil). Serve immediately on warm plate (at 113 degrees, fish is wonderfully textured, but not very warm, so serve right as it is ready to be eaten). Enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the freshest sea bass possible. Look for fish that has bright, clear eyes, shiny scales, and a mild, briny smell.
- Score the sea bass before grilling. This will help the fish cook evenly and prevent it from curling up.
- Season the sea bass generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as lemon zest, thyme, or rosemary.
- Grill the sea bass over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist.
- Cook the sea bass until it is just cooked through. The flesh should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
- Serve the sea bass immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular options include roasted vegetables, grilled lemon wedges, or a simple green salad.
