This was a highly rated recipe that I found on the Safeway website, posted by Kiki Hahn (though the allrecipes site is credited for the photo). It's a recipe for sea bass simmered in a delicious tomato and white wine sauce with onions and capers for a little flavor kick. The posting chef suggests serving it with rice pilaf.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest sea bass possible: Look for fish with bright, clear eyes, red gills, and a firm, springy texture.
- Score the fish before cooking: This will help the marinade penetrate the flesh and cook it more evenly.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade in this recipe is packed with citrus, garlic, and herbs, which will infuse the fish with delicious flavor.
- Cook the fish over high heat: This will help to sear the skin and create a crispy crust.
- Serve the fish with a variety of dipping sauces: This will allow your guests to customize their meal to their own taste.
Conclusion:
This Cuban-style sea bass is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The fish is marinated in a flavorful blend of citrus, garlic, and herbs, then grilled or pan-fried until crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. Serve with a variety of dipping sauces, such as mojo sauce, salsa verde, or a simple vinaigrette.
