Sea Bass Artichoke Salad Food

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 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.

SEA BASS IN ARTICHOKE STEW, AND TEQUILA SERVED WITH RICOTTA TORTITA

Steps:

• Mix the miso paste with the water and add the honey and lime juice. Marinate the fish in the mixture for 12 hours, in the refrigerator.
• About an hour before cooking the fish, make the tortitas. In a large mixing bowl, and combine the potato, ricotta, softened butter, egg yolks, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Slowly add the flour, 1 spoonful at a time, while mixing all of the ingredients until a dough is formed. Roll the dough out flat, and cut out circles using a 4-inch round cookie cutter. When you are ready to saute, heat a skillet and saute the circles some clarified butter until golden brown.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large pan heat the olive oil and saute the artichoke, carrots, shallots, bay leaves, thyme, and the pepperleaf. When tender, flambe with the tequila. Then add the white wine and cover with water. Simmer slowly until vegetables are almost cooked, about 15 minutes.
• Add the fish into the pot on top of the artichokes, cover, and cook for 10 minutes in the oven. Once the fish has been cooked, drain the juice from the pan, into a small saucepan, and reduce by half. Keep the fish and vegetables warm. Add the cream to the reduced sauce, and reduce again until the mixture thickly coats the back of a spoon. Add the butter at the end.
• To serve, place 1/4 of the pepperleaf chiffonade on the bottom of a plate. Add the artichoke stew in the center of a platter, add the fish on top, place a tortita on the side, and add the sauce around the plate. Garnish with the corn leaves, fried tomato skins, and miniature corn.

Scatter artichokes, tomatoes, zucchini, basil and garlic around fish. Pour clam juice over. Bake until fish is just opaque in center, about 20 minutes.

MARINATED SEA BASS WITH ARTICHOKE RELISH

Steps:

• To make the relish, first trim the artichoke stems. With a sharp knife cut off the top third of the artichoke. Pull off the outer leaves. Cut off any tough green skin from the bottoms. Rub the artichokes with lemon; set aside.
• Heat a saucepan to a boil with the water, wine, ginger, curry and turmeric. Allow to simmer about 2 minutes. Add in the artichoke bottoms and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Scrape out the hairy chokes and cut the artichokes into 1/2 inch dice.
• Return the liquid to a boil and add the soybeans. Cook until tender, about 2 minutes; drain. Transfer soybeans to a bowl and add the green onions, onion tomato and artichokes. Refrigerate.
• To make the ginger mayonnaise, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl; refrigerate.
• Prepare the marinade. Grate the ginger into a small strainer set over a bowl. Extract as much juice as possible, about 2 tablespoons. Now in a baking dish or other marinating pan whisk together the ginger juice, sake, mirin, soy sauce and miso paste. Add the sea bass fillets and marinate in the refrigerator up to 2 hours, turning twice.
• Preheat oven to 500°F
• Pat the fillets dry and season with salt and pepper. In an ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over high heat. Place fillets, skin side down and cook until well browned, about 2 minutes. Turn then transfer to the oven. Roast for 5 minutes, until just cooked through.
• To serve, stir the lime juice into the relish and divide among 4 serving plates. Set a fillet on top of each, then dollop with the ginger mayonnaise. Garish with chives.
