Sea Bass San Sebastián

A delicious sea bass recipe coated with a creamy mayonnaise sauce and garnished with fresh vegetables and almonds.

Ingredients

  • mayonnaise (3 tablespoons)
  • sherry vinegar (2 teaspoons)
  • garlic (2 cloves)
  • smoked paprika (1 teaspoon)
  • kosher salt (1 teaspoon)
  • cayenne pepper (1 teaspoon)
  • olive oil (2 teaspoons)
  • Hatch chile pepper (1 )
  • Chilean sea bass fillet (1 pound)
  • kosher salt (0.5 teaspoon)
  • whole roasted Marcona almonds (0.25 cup)
  • Sungold cherry tomatoes (0.5 cup)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine mayonnaise, sherry vinegar, garlic, smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Coat bottom of 2 individual serving-sized baking dishes with olive oil; cover the bottom of dishes with a single layer of pepper slices.
  4. Season sea bass with 1/2 teaspoon salt; place 1 portion in each dish on top of pepper slices. Spread mayonnaise sauce on tops and sides of sea bass, spreading it thickest on top. Grate almonds over top to cover; transfer baking dishes to the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until browned and sea bass flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 18 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part should read 135 to 140 degrees F (57 to 60 degrees C). Garnish with tomatoes.
