• In another saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter. Over high heat, saute the baby vegetables until glazed. Divide into 2 and mound in center of plate. Keep warm.
• Add the remaining 2 ounces of butter to the fillets and baste them with the butter. Place a fillet and the red peppers on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle half of the croutons on top and around each fillet. To butter, add shallots and continue to cook until butter turns brown. Deglaze with lemon juice, and add the lemon pieces, parsley, chives, tarragon, capers, and caper berries. When heated, pour half over and around each fillet. Serve immediately.

CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH LEMON, DILL & CAPER SAUCE RECIPE - (3.6/5)

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 450 degrees. Put wine, garlic, shallot, lemon juice and lemon zest in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Continue cooking until liquid is reduced to about 1/3 cup. Reduce heat to low and whisk in 1 tablespoon of butter at a time. Remove from heat and stir in 1 T dill and capers. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Heat an oven proof skillet on high and add grapeseed oil to the pan. Heat the oil until it starts to shimmer. Dry the sea bass thoroughly and season with salt and pepper. Sear the fillets for about 3 minutes on each side, turning once. The goal is to get a crispy golden crust on each side. Remove the pan from the stove and transfer to the hot oven. Roast for about 5 minutes in the oven until sea bass is just cooked through. Plate the fish, drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with remaining 1 T fresh dill.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place the flour in a shallow dish and add salt and pepper to season it, mix. Coat both sides of the sea bass fillets with the flour.
• Heat a cast iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add canola oil and swirl to coat the bottom. When the oil hot and begins to shimmer, place the coated fish in the hot skillet and cook until the bottom browns. Turn the fish over and cook for 1 minute.
• Place the skillet in the oven and bake for about 8 minutes, and then take out of the oven to test for doneness. Place a fork into the thickest part of the fish at a 45 degree angle and lift gently. The fish should be opaque, not translucent and should easily flake when done. If it needs more time, return to the oven for 2 minutes. It should be cooked through and brown on both sides.
• While fish is cooking, pound garlic cloves with the flat side of chef's knife, peel and trim the end, then chop into a fine mince. Place half of the minced garlic in a small bowl, reserving the rest for the spinach. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, capers with juice, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oregano, and parsley. Whisk together to incorporate and set aside.
• For the spinach, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, reduce heat to medium low and add remaining minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano to pan. Cook until garlic is aromatic. Add blanched spinach, stir and cook until the spinach is hot.
• Once the fish is cooked, the sauce is made and the spinach is sauteed, plate the dish. Place spinach on the plate, taking care that no moisture pools from the saute. Top with sea bass and finish with lemon sauce.
