  • Ingredient List Fish:
  • 2 lb whole sea bass, gutted/gilled, scaled, rinsed
  • 1 Tbsp e.v. olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • pinch (1/8 tsp) black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp black sesame seeds
  • 1/3 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 Tbsp ginger, grated
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 3 Tbsp soy sauce / tamari - regular or gluten free
  • zest from one orange
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 3/4 cup orange pulp (the leftovers in the skin after juicing and/or a finely diced orange)
  • 1/4 tsp red chili pepper flakes - optional if you like spice

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 425F
  • For Fish:  Lay out one big sheet of aluminum foil (large enough to wrap up the entire fish en papillote - you will bake the fish in it like a package).  Lay the fish on it and rub in olive oil, salt, pepper, and sprinkle sesame seeds on each side.  Wrap it up and bake ~20-25 minutes or until fish is flaky.
  • Make the sauce:  Bring a small pan to medium high heat and add all sauce ingredients.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook uncovered at a low simmer for ~5-8 minutes or until thickened.
  • Serve over fish (this sauce is good on any meats or tofu) and with rice and veggies.  The skin on this tastes lovely if the fish is really fresh, so don't be afraid to try the skin!  Happy Eating! Beckie
