Roasted Sea Bass With Lentils And Artichokes Food

HONEY & ORANGE ROAST SEA BASS WITH LENTILS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place each sea bass fillet, skin-side down, on individual squares of foil. Mix together the orange zest, honey, mustard, 1 tbsp olive oil and some seasoning, and drizzle it over the fillets. Pull the sides of the foil up and twist the edges together to make individual parcels. Place the parcels on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 10 mins until the fish is just cooked and flakes easily when pressed with a knife.
• Warm the lentils following pack instructions, then mix with the orange juice, remaining oil, the watercress, herbs and seasoning. Divide the lentils between 2 plates and top each with a sea bass fillet. Drizzle over any roasting juices that are caught in the foil and serve immediately.

STRIPED BASS WITH ARTICHOKES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Season the fish with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the zest from the lemon using a vegetable peeler (reserve the lemon). Combine the lemon zest, parsley, garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. With the motor running, gradually add the bread and pulse several times to make coarse crumbs. Spread the breadcrumbs evenly in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the artichokes, olives and tomatoes around the edge and bake until the exposed breadcrumbs in the middle are toasted, about 15 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Scoop out the toasted breadcrumbs and set aside. Add the fish to the baking dish and top with the toasted breadcrumbs. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cut the reserved lemon into wedges and squeeze on top.

SEA BASS WITH ARTICHOKE PESTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
• Put the sea bass filets in one layer, skin side up, into the baking dish. Drain the artichoke hearts, pouring the liquid over the fish. Let marinate while you make the pesto.
• To make the pesto, put the artichoke hearts into the bowl of a food processor. Add the pesto and red pepper flakes and process until chunky. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and start processing again. Drizzle in 1 to 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, adding more as needed until you get the consistency that is thick but pourable. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed. Can be refrigerated for up to 1 week.
• Bake the sea bass until it is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the pesto each onto 4 plates. Place the fish onto the pesto and also top with a generous spoonful of the pesto.

APPLEWOOD BACON WRAPPED CHILEAN SEABASS ON LENTILS DU PUY

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, sweat the onions in the olive oil, and when they are translucent, add the celery and carrots. Add the lentils and toss with the vegetables. Add the vegetable broth to cover and the bouquet garni. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat to simmer the lentils until they are soft.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Preheat an ovenproof saute pan large enough to hold the 7-ounce fillet, comfortably. On a cutting board, shingle 4 to 5 slices of bacon. Take the fillet and place it at the corner of the bacon. Place the sage leaves on top of the fillet. Wrap the fillet in the bacon. When saute pan is hot, place the bacon wrapped fish into the center of the pan, searing the bacon. After 2 minutes, turn the fish over and place the entire pan into the oven to finish cooking, about 10 minutes.
• When the lentils are soft, drain off extra liquid and remove the bouquet garni. Remove the fish from the oven and plate. Fold the butter, chopped parsley, tomato concasse, and whipped cream into the lentils and spoon on top of the Chilean sea bass. Garnish with the sage leaves. Serve hot.
• Place the thyme, parsley, black peppercorns, and bay leaves inside the cheesecloth. Secure the herbs and spices within the cheesecloth by tying it into a satchel with the butcher's twine.

SEA BASS & ARTICHOKE SALAD

Steps:

• Cook the couscous following pack instructions, then mix with the artichokes. Whisk the mustard with the oil from the artichoke pack, along with ½ tbsp olive oil, then add it to the couscous. Toss the herbs into the salad, along with the lemon zest and juice, some seasoning and the watercress.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Season the sea bass skin, then place it, skin-side down, in the oil. Use the back of a fish slice to hold the fish down, as it will start to curl up a bit. Once the flesh is nearly all opaque, around 3 mins, flip over and cook for 1 min more. Divide the salad between two plates and place the fish on top.

SEA BASS WITH ARTICHOKES, ZUCCHINI AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F. Drain marinade from artichokes into 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Add fish; turn to coat with marinade. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Scatter artichokes, tomatoes, zucchini, basil and garlic around fish. Pour clam juice over. Bake until fish is just opaque in center, about 20 minutes.

SEA BASS WITH ARTICHOKES AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Barbecue fish just until done (be careful not to overcook).
• While the fish is cooking, make the sauce. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and saute garlic and leeks until soft, a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add artichokes, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar.
• Reduce by about 50 per cent. There shouldn't be much vinegar left in the pan, and it should be starting to get syrupy. Keep warm on low until fish is ready.
• Plate fish with sauce and enjoy!
