Ingredients:

• 2 fresh sea bass fillets 
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, finely shredded
• 2 red chillies, thinly sliced
• 4 spring onions, sliced into thin strips
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• Fresh coriander, for garnish
• Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Sea Bass:

• Pat the sea bass fillets dry and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
• Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the fillets in the pan, skin-side down, and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
• Flip the fillets and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until the fish is cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside on a serving plate.

1. Sizzle the Ginger, Garlic & Chillies:

• In the same pan, add the garlic slices, shredded ginger, and sliced chillies. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic turns golden and fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
• Add the spring onions to the pan and cook for another 1 minute until they soften slightly.

1. Make the Sauce:

• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil, allowing the residual heat to mix the flavours.

1. Serve:

• Spoon the sizzled ginger, garlic, chilli, and spring onions over the crispy sea bass fillets.
• Garnish with fresh coriander and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus.

Suggested Pairing:

Serve this sea bass dish with jasmine rice or stir-fried vegetables for a light, flavour-packed meal. For a refreshing pairing, enjoy with a crisp, dry white wine or a light lager.
