BLACKENED SEA BASS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a skillet over high heat. Dredge fish in spices and saute on both sides. Finish the cooking in the oven, for about 4 or 5 minutes.
• It is also wise to have all your windows open, and all your smoke alarms disconnected, considering the amount of smoke that this wonderful dish produces.
• Toast the slices of challah and spread 4 of the slices with mayonnaise. In a small bowl, mix some ketchup with some grated horseradish. Spread this mixture on the other 4 slices of bread.
• *Cook's Note: if loaf challah cannot be found individual rolls: aqua bread, Kaiser, potato, or egg-bread rolls are all fine. Also, cocktail sauce can be used instead of the ketchup and horseradish mixture.
• Mix well. Store in glass or plastic container with lid.
• Yield: about 1 1/2 cups

• Dip each sea bass fillet into the melted butter, evenly coating both sides. Sprinkle both sides with seasoning mixture.

TANGERINE GRILLED SEA BASS

Steps:

• Combine the tangerine juice, lemon juice, oil, honey, coriander, thyme and garlic in a large plastic storage container. Whisk to combine. Add the sea bass fillets and turn to coat in the marinade. Cover with a lid and marinate in the refrigerator, flipping once halfway through, 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or large cast-iron grill pan to medium heat. While the grill heats up, remove the fish from the marinade and pat fairly dry with paper towels. (There should be a light coating of marinade on the fish but not too much, because excess oil will cause flare-ups on the grill.) Discard the marinade. Season the fish liberally on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Place the fish skin-side down on the hot grill. Cook until the skin is light golden brown and crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully flip the fish and cook until just cooked through and the center is opaque, 3 to 5 minutes more.
• While the fish is cooking, add the tangerines to the grill cut-side down. Grill until the flesh is deeply charred in spots, about 10 minutes. Remove from the grill and cool slightly.
• To serve, transfer the grilled fish to a large platter. Nestle the grilled tangerines around the fish and top with the sprigs of mint. Serve immediately.
