Roasted Chilean Sea Bass With A Compote Of Salsify Zucchini And Breen Beans In A Port Wine Black Truffle Vinaigrette Food

BLACK SEA BASS AND MUSSELS A LA NAGE

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add the fava beans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Peel off the black eyelets from the bean's shells. Squeeze and pop the beans from their shells. Transfer the beans to a bowl.
• Add the asparagus and peas to the water and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to the ice water to stop the cooking and drain. Transfer the vegetables to the bowl of beans.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Rub the inside of the skillet with the 1 teaspoon of butter and sprinkle with the shallots. Generously season the fish all over with the salt and pepper, and arrange the fillets, skin-side up, in the skillet. Scatter the mussels over the top and pour in the vermouth and water. Cover the skillet and bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low and cook until the mussels have open (only uncover the skillet once or twice). Remove the skillet from the heat and let rest, covered, until the fish is just cooked through, about 6 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer the fish and mussels to a baking pan, leaving the broth in the skillet, and keep warm in the oven. Meanwhile, bring the broth to a boil, add the vegetables and whisk in the 4 tablespoons of butter, little by little, until fully incorporated. Whisk in the herbs.
• Divide the fish and mussels among 4 wide, shallow soup plates or bowls. Divide the broth and vegetables among the plates and serve immediately.

BAKED CHILEAN SEA BASS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. and allow the Chilean sea bass to rest for at least 20 minutes at room temperature. Cooking it straight out of the fridge will result in uneven cooking.
• Pat dry the fish with a paper towel and then brush it with melted butter. Season it generously on all sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle a little paprika on top for color, if desired. Pour the remaining melted butter over each filet.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until the fish reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. How long you cook it really depends on the thickness of each fish fillet.
• Once the fish comes out of the oven, squeeze some lemon juice over the top and enjoy it!

ROASTED CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH CHIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the chives in a food processor. Turn on the processor and add the olive oil through the feed tube in a thin steady stream. Season with salt and pepper. Stop to taste, then adjust, adding more oil, chives, salt or pepper as desired. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl and reserve.
• Place the sea bass in a sauté pan or roasting pan just large enough to fit the fillets. Sprinkle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast until the fish is just barely cooked in the center. It will continue to cook once it is removed from the oven. (It should take about 9 minutes per inch of thickness.)
• Transfer the sea bass to serving plates and sprinkle with the chive oil.

PLANTAIN COATED SEA BASS WITH MANGO WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Dredge the sea bass in flour, shaking off excess. Then, dredge in the egg, and then Plantain Crust. Cook sea bass in an ovenproof, nonstick saute pan in 2 tablespoons of oil for about 1 minute. Turn the fish over and place in the oven until the fish is cooked through, about 8 minutes. In a separate pan mix the rice and beans and cook until just heated through. Keep warm and set aside. Heat the 12 ounces of oil in a saute pan. Slice bananas lengthwise into 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick slices and fry in the oil until golden brown on both sides. Place rice and beans in center of each of 4 plates. Place fish on top of rice.

Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the rice, salt, and pepper, and stir until the rice is coated with oil. Add the lobster stock, cover, and cook for 20 minutes. Don't open the cover until 20 minutes have passed! Fluff with a fork and taste for seasoning.
• Saute onions, garlic, oregano, and bacon until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the beans and chipotle peppers and stir. Add 4 cups of water and simmer for about 90 minutes, or until the beans are tender. Add more water if necessary. Add balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
• Peel, pit, and puree mango in a blender or a food processor with as little water as possible. Set aside.
• In a saucepan, combine the white wine, orange juice, star anise, cardamom, shallot, and peppercorns. Cook the mixture is reduced to 1/4 cup. Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the butter and mango puree until emulsified. Return to the heat as necessary so that the butter melts. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
• In a stove top smoker, lay out wood chips. Cut tomatoes lengthwise, and lay, cut side up, on the wood chips. Smoke tomatoes until fork tender, about 15 minutes. Place the tomatoes in a blender and process until smooth. Slowly drizzle the oil into tomatoes while the blender is running. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
