Recipe Instructions

Rinse the Chilean sea bass with cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Lightly season the fish with salt and pepper, then coat with flour, shaking off the excess. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the fish pieces and cook just until lightly browned, about 1 minute on each side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, lemon juice, bay leaves, rosemary, oregano, coriander, salt and pepper and cook over high heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes.

Add the fish pieces and press them gently into the tomato mixture, cover the skillet and cook over medium heat until the fish is no longer opaque in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Discard the bay leaves, transfer the fish and tomato mixture to warmed dinner plates and serve with rice or pasta.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
