Pan-Seared Sea Bass with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared sea bass fillets with a perfectly crisp skin, finished with a zesty lemon-herb sauce and served alongside fluffy quinoa and vibrant snap peas.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Sea bass fillet
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Snap peas
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Fresh dill
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the sea bass fillet completely dry with paper towels to ensure a crisp sear, then season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the extra virgin olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the sea bass in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 30 seconds to prevent curling.
Sear the fish for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until opaque.
While the fish cooks, steam the snap peas for 3 minutes until they are vibrant green and tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and chopped dill to create the sauce.
Arrange the fluffy cooked quinoa on a plate, top with the snap peas and the seared sea bass, then drizzle the lemon-herb sauce over the top and serve immediately.
