Chilean Sea Bass is one of the best fish around. It's delicious, it's versatile, and especially amazing when served with Mediterranean-style vegetables and is finished with fresh basil.
What I want to know is what is the best way to cook it? Pan-Seared? Grilled? Baked?
Chilean sea bass is caught in deep waters in and around southern oceans near Antarctica. It is a buttery, firm, mildly sweet, melt-in-your-mouth fish that pairs with just about anything. It is snow-white in color and can be eaten with or without the skin.
You can grill, broil, bake, pan-sear, or poach it. Chilean sea bass is a bit of an overfished species and is often very expensive.

Ingredients for this recipe:
For the Mediterranean Vegetables
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pound baby potatoes, sliced in half
• 1 peeled and thinly sliced shallots
• 3 finely minced garlic cloves
• 10 kalamata olives, sliced in half
• 10 Frescatrano olives, sliced in half
• 2 julienne roasted red bell peppers

• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
• salt and pepper to taste
For the Sea Bass

This was incredible! Absolutely melts in your mouth. I never would've attempted to pan sear such an expensive fish were it not for this channel.

On Cape Cod, bought wild caught black bass, with no odea how to cook it. Found this video and played it while cooking (paising as needed). And it works! Bravo!

Came for the sea bass, stayed for the potatoes. I’ve made this side dish at least 4 times in a few months! Pan seared sea bass was spot on. Thanks for the help!!

I agree, this is the BEST topping for a beautiful piece of mild, flaky but firm white fish, and Sea Bass is the best! I've been using this "tapenade" for years.

@ChefBillyParisi made this same recipe but did it with Halibut and it was fantastic. I went pan-seared and it was excellent. Also a quick time saver, grab some prepared roasted red peppers from the whole foods olive bar or salad bar at your local store. Save yourself some time and clean up. 3 Red Peppers were almost $5 and fresh out the oven at whole foods was $7 for 3/4 lb.

@joannebewley1338 6 ай бұрын

My favorite! I rigged a potato base with what I had. Chunked idaho potato, diced vine tomato, I did blister my own bell pepper, onion, garlic and because I had no olives, I squeezed fresh lemon juice into it. It's pretty good, not as beautiful as Chef Billy's. The sea bass was the exact method and it was fab!

What kind of oil do you use to coat the fish. Do you use a high temperature oil like avocado oil or just vegetable oil or olive oil?

@distantmind8465 Жыл бұрын

It's 500-600 degrees you should probably use high heat oil... unless you want burnt oil all over your fish

@thatianamafra4176 Жыл бұрын

Very good question

@dobklyznskovik6705 Жыл бұрын

It will always be avocado or olive. Olive is best (and typically what I use), but avocado has that high smoke point allowing you to cook longer if you prefer a more firm texture.

Is this branzino? That’s the type of Chilean sea bass I always use. It’s so dang good and surprisingly cheap, at least relatively speaking. They have it at Trader Joe’s for just $12/lb. I love halibut too, but halibut is so damn expensive it’s insane, so I always use branzino sea bass in place of halibut.

If you cook the sea bass in the oven for 25 minutes at 400 degrees, it will give an oven sear. Use melted butter with onion salt, garlic power, and black pepper.
