Ingredients
- Two 6-ounce pieces sea bass (white, black or striped)
- Olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup Jalapeno-Mango Salsa, recipe follows
- 1 lime, wedged
- Cooked white rice, optional
Directions
Heat a grill pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Drizzle the fish on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the fish onto the hot grill pan and cook until opaque in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Top each piece of fish with 1/2 cup Jalapeno-Mango Salsa and serve with lime wedges. Accompany with white rice if desired.
Jalapeno-Mango Salsa:
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 whole jalapeno chiles
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 mangoes, peeled, pitted and diced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/4 large red onion, minced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat the vegetable oil in a small saute pan over medium-high heat. Lightly fry the jalapeno chiles, turning them in the pan until their skins are blistered, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool. Once cooled, stem, seed and finely chop the jalapeno chiles and place them into a large mixing bowl. Add the cilantro, mangoes, lime juice and onions and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or store the salsa in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Yield: 2 cups.

Salsa is very delicious. Better on cod and halibut. I do not understand why anyone eats sea bass. It has to be the most tasteless fish on Earth, akin to eating tripe. Why any chef prepares or serves sea bass is beyond me.

I really like the simplicity of this recipe and it tastes great! I prefer using the Mexican Sea Bass instead of Chilean and have used this recipe with halibut as well. All are great witht the mango salsa. I have grilled the fish as per this recipe, but now prefer steaming as it keeps the fish moist and reduces the oil calories. Each way is delicious!
