Ingredients
For the fish:
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon juiced
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 (1.5 pound) Chilean sea bass fillet cut into 4-5 small fillets
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
For the rice:
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 2 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme freshly chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add the garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, old bay seasoning, salt and pepper to a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Place the fillets on a plate and rub the marinade into both sides then cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- While the fish is marinating, make the rice by heating the olive oil over medium heat in a medium pot.
- Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds or until it becomes fragrant.
- Add the rice and stir and cook until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes, then stir in the chicken broth, thyme and salt and bring it to a boil. Turn the heat down to low heat and cover with a lid.
- Let rice cook for 20 minutes without lifting the lid, turn the heat off and let it sit undisturbed for 10 minutes then fluff the rice.
- Next, cook the fillets by heating the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted.
- Add the fish and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side or until a nice crust starts to form.
- Serve immediately over a bed of the cooked rice with lemon wedges and fresh thyme or parsley for garnish if desired.
