Baked Sea Bass In White Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450F°.
• In a cup, mix garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
• Place fish in a shallow glass or ceramic baking dish.
• Rub fish with oil mixture.
• (Optional) Pour wine over fish.
• Bake fish, uncovered, for 15 minutes; then sprinkle with parsley or Italian seasoning and continue to bake for 5 more minutes (or until the thickest part of the fish flakes easily).
• Drizzle remaining pan juices over fish and garnish with lemon wedges.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Wash fish and pat dry.
• Spread flour on a plate.
• Salt the fish and then dredge in flour, coating entirely. Allow to rest for 20 minutes.
• Heat olive oil over high heat in a sauté pan large enough to hold both fish without crowding.
• When the oil is very hot but not yet smoking, add garlic and toss the garlic around for a minute.
• Place fish in the pan and brown 1-1/2 minutes on each side.
• Lower heat to medium, cover and roast for about 10 minutes, turning the fish once.
• Remove to a warmed side plate.
• (Note that the 10 minute cooking time is for fish about 1" thick at its thickest part. For thinner or thicker fish adjust the time accordingly.)
• Add wine, raise heat to high and quickly reduce to a syrupy consistency, scraping all around the pan to loosen browned bits clinging to the pot.
• Add the butter and swirl to melt and blend.
• Correct seasoning and pour sauce over fish.
• Garnish with additional oregano and lemon slices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375*. Butter an oven dish. Dry the fish and season it well inside and out with salt and pepper. Place it in the buttered dish and spread with onion, parsley, garlic and mushrooms. Dot well with the remaining butter except for the 1 Tblsp. and pour the wine over all.
• Bake 40-45 minutes, basting frequently. Remove the fish to a heated platter. Add the 1 Tblsp. of cold butter to the sauce in the baking dish. Do not heat. Pour sauce over fish without straining.
• Decorate, if desired, with lemon and additional chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Season the cavity and exterior of fish with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly brush with oil a baking dish that is just large enough to hold fish without crowding. Divide thyme, rosemary, and parsley evenly between each fish, and place inside cavity. Place 2 bay leaves in cavity of each fish, and place remaining 2 bay leaves in baking dish. Sprinkle scallions over and around fish; drizzle with olive oil.
• Transfer to oven and roast 15 minutes. Continue to roast, checking every few minutes, until the thickest part of the fish is just firm, about 5 minutes more.
• Drizzle fish with lemon juice and transfer to a cutting board; set baking dish aside. Working from the head to the tail, cut along backbone to separate the flesh from the bone. Carefully lift top fillet and transfer to a plate. Lift and discard bones. Gently lift second fillet to same plate. Repeat process with remaining fish. Drizzle with any pan juices before serving.
