Oven-Roasted Sea Bass with Ginger and Lime Sauce

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

1 tablespoon chopped peeled fresh ginger

1 tablespoon minced shallot

5 teaspoons light or regular olive oil

2 6-ounce sea bass fillets (each about 3/4 inch thick)- (I recommend the fresh Sea bass at Sarasota Seafood market on 12th street-call ahead to make sure they have it or can order it for you)

 

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F. Mix first 5 ingredients and 3 teaspoons oil in small bowl. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
  2. Brush 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish with remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Arrange fish in prepared dish; turn to coat. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper; spoon 1/2 tablespoon sauce over each fillet.
  3. Roast fish until just opaque in center, about 12 minutes. Top fish with remaining sauce and serve with forbidden rice

 

Ingredients 

For the Rice:

3 1/2 cups water

2 cups black forbidden rice (Fresh Market)

1 (1 1/2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

2 1/2 cups (8 ounces) snap peas, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

For the Dressing:

1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar

1/4 cup grapeseed oil

3 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon soy sauce

Directions

  1. For the rice: In a medium saucepan, bring the water, rice, ginger, and salt to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and cook until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and place in a large serving bowl.
  2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the snap peas and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly soft, about 2 minutes. Transfer the peas to the serving bowl.
  3. For the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, oil, honey, and soy sauce until smooth.
  4. Pour the dressing over the rice mixture and toss well. Serve warm or at room temperature.
