Mediterranean Sea Bass Recipe

It has a light, moist texture, briefly pan-seared then quickly finished in the oven. The whole dish takes 35 minutes from start to finish, so it’s ideal for weeknight suppers yet elegant enough for company.

I received a ton of new cookbooks this Spring, so I am slowly making my way through them! This recipe is from the Mostly Plants Cookbook, which features 101 flexitarian recipes from the Pollan family. I gravitated towards this fish dish, because I love finding new ways to eat fish which I try to eat at least twice a week. You can see more of my fish recipes here. The Mediterranean flavors of the sauce made from tomatoes, white wine, fennel and olives were delicious, I served it with some crusty bread to scoop up that sauce but you can eat it without. Any white fish can be used in this recipe, I couldn’t find sea bass so I used halibut. Striped bass or cod would also be great.
