After cooking the filet mignon, I received as a sample via one of my advertisers, Foodie Blogroll, courtesy of Certified Steak and Seafood Company, in a French Red Wine Shallot Sauce, I was eager to come up with a recipe for the sea bass. Since the beef was so fresh, I figured the fish would be too so I didn't want to cook anything that would disguise its flavor. I simply pan-fried the sea bass and served it with a stir-fry. The fish was so juicy and flavorful that I made it again the next night. Nothing fancy, but a tasty, healthy, and quick dinner.
Sea Bass with Mushroom, Cabbage, and Zucchini Stir-Fry
For 2 servings, you'll need:
2 sea bass filets, or any other fish of your choice
8 oz beech mushrooms or any other fresh mushroom of your choice
4 shiitake mushrooms, soaked and thinly sliced
1 zucchini, julienned
3 napa cabbage leaves, thinly sliced
Montreal Steak Seasoning or any other flavored salt of your choice
2 tsp Oyster Sauce or my Ultimate Stir-Fry Sauce
Soak the shiitake mushrooms. Prep and slice all vegetables. Set aside.
Sprinkle a bit of Montreal Steak Seasoning on the fish. Drizzle a bit of oil into a pan and pan-fry on medium heat.
Meanwhile in another pan on medium-high heat, drizzle a bit of oil and toss in all the vegetables. Add a bit of oyster sauce and Sriracha chile sauce, or make up my Ultimate Stir-fry Sauce if you'd like.
In a few minutes when the fish is opaque about half-way up the filet, flip it over and continue pan-frying. That's a splatter guard you see in the background, in case you didn't know. Helps keep oil splatters to a minimum when frying.
Give the vegetables a quick stir. They should be cooking down about now. Season to taste if needed.
When the fish is done, the vegetables should be too. Plate and serve with rice.
Enjoy!

Something about really good fish that makes you want to cook it simply. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteNikki,
ReplyDeleteI keep it simple and generally just pan-fry or steam fish. The sea bass was sooo good.
