Chilean Sea Bass And Oolong Tea Roulade Recipes

PAN SEARED CHILEAN SEA BASS

Steps:

• Cut SEA BASS filet down the center to create 2 pieces (1/2 lb. each). Allow to rest 20 minutes at room temp to remove chill.
• Heat OLIVE OIL in skillet over medium-high until it reaches the smoke point.
• Place sea bass (skin side down) in the hot skillet. Sprinkle SALT and PEPPER over the filet.
• If you want crispy skin, press the filet down firmly with a spatula until it becomes visibly crispy. Turn the filet over and allow the non-skin side to sear until the filet is opaque throughout, reducing heat a notch or two as needed.
• Transfer the filet to a plate and allow to rest a few minutes.
• Serve sea bass warm with your favorite salad and side dish. Suggested: serve over salad greens topped with Chimichurri Sauce (see recipe in footnotes).

P F CHANG'S OOLONG MARINATED SEA BASS

Steps:

• Combine the first six ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cool uncovered, then strain out the ginger, garlic, and tea.
• Put your sea bass fillets in a storage bag or a covered container with 2 cups of the marinade. Reserve the remaining sauce. Let the fish have a nice soak in the marinade for 5 to 7 hours in the fridge. If the sauce doesn't completely cover the fish, be sure to turn the fillets a couple hours in so that all sides get marinated.
• When you are ready to prepare the fish, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the fillets on a baking sheet. Bake the fish for 22 minutes or until the edges of the fillets are starting to turn brown.
• Crank the oven up to a high broil and broil fish for 2 to 3 minutes or until you get some dark patches around the edge of the fillets. Just don't let them burn.
• As your fish is baking, first start to reheat the reserved sauce on low then heat up a wok or large skillet with one tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the spinach, garlic and baby sweet corn, and a dash of salt and pepper to the pan. Saute the veggies just until the spinach is wilted, then arrange the spinach and corn on each of the four plates.
• When the sea bass is done broiling, use a spatula to carefully lay the fillets over the spinach and baby corn on each plate. Split the remaining sauce and pour it over each of the fillets before serving.
