SAUTEED CHILEAN SEA BASS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
- Place flour for dredging in a shallow bowl. Coat each fillet with seasoned flour and shake off excess. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Add butter/olive oil combination. Add the fillets, without crowding. Increase heat to high and saute, shaking the pan from time to time, until the bottom of the fish is nicely browned, about 3 minutes. Turn and brown the other side. Remove fish to a plate and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with remaining fillets.
- Deglaze the pan with white wine. Cook, stirring over high heat until reduced by about one-third. Stir in remaining butter and drained capers.
- Plate fish and drizzle sauce around each fillet.
SAUTEED CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH POTATO-PARSNIP BRANDADE WITH PIQUILLO PEPPER SAFFRON SAUCE
Steps:
- Brush oil on both sides of fish and season with salt and pepper. Heat saute pan over medium high heat. Place the fish skin-side down and saute until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Turn over and continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Place a large spoonful of brandade onto a warmed dinner plate. Balance one Sauteed sea bass fillet on one side of the brandade. Drizzle the whole plate with the Piquillo Pepper Saffron Sauce.
- Place garlic and 1/4 cup oil in a small saucepan and slowly heat over medium heat until the garlic turns a light golden brown. Place the garlic and a few tablespoons of the oil in a food processor with the salt cod and process until smooth. Pass the potatoes and parsnips through a food mill into a large bowl. Add the salt cod puree, milk and remaining olive oil and stir until combined. Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
- Place shallots, wine, vinegar and saffron in a medium non-reactive pot and cook until the liquid is reduced to 1 tablespoon. Slowly begin whisking in the butter until the sauce emulsifies. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and fold in the piquillo peppers.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest sea bass fillets possible. Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a mild, briny smell.
- Use a large skillet or sauté pan to cook the sea bass. This will allow the fillets to cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the sea bass. This will help to sear the fillets and prevent them from falling apart.
- Cook the sea bass for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
- Season the sea bass with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as lemon juice, garlic, or herbs.
- Serve the sea bass immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Conclusion:
Sautéed Chilean sea bass is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with white wine, lemon juice, and capers, and it is served with a side of roasted vegetables. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
