Seared Sea Bass with Garlic Sauce Recipe


Submitted by lindagal

Makes 2 servings



Cooking Light's recipe for a nice, light fish. I split the recipe in half; the original recipe serves four. I also increased the cooking time; originally it called for 3 minutes in a covered skillet. With a 1.5 inch fillet, I found I needed 5 minutes to avoid a raw center!

Ingredients
1/2 pound sea bass fillet (about 2 inches thick)
1 tsp olive oil
1/8 cup water
1 ounce dry vermouth (1/8 cup)
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
2 wedges lemon
Directions
  1. Cut fish crosswise into 2 equal pieces. Heat oil in medium nonstick skillet over high heat. Add fish, and cook 1 minute. Turn fish over; gradually add the water and next 4 ingredients (water through garlic). Cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.

  2. Remove fish from skillet; set aside, and keep warm. Cook the vermouth mixture over high heat 1 minute or until slightly thickened. Pour over fish; sprinkle with parsley. Serve with lemon.
