Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Chilean sea bass fillets
- 2 tablespoons (grated) Fresh ginger
- 1 whole (zested and juiced) Lemon
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, salt, and black pepper.
Place the Chilean sea bass fillets in the prepared baking dish and pour the ginger-lemon marinade over the fish, ensuring each fillet is evenly coated.
Let the fillets marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature for the flavors to absorb.
Bake the sea bass in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish the cooked fillets with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or rice.
