Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and lime juice to create the marinade.
Place the sea bass fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush each fillet generously with the marinade. Reserve some marinade for serving, if desired.
Bake the sea bass fillets in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is baking, prepare the garnishes. Slice the green onions and red chili thinly, and chop the fresh cilantro.
Once the sea bass is cooked, transfer the fillets to a serving dish. Drizzle any reserved marinade over the top.
Sprinkle the sliced green onions, red chili, cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds (if using) over the fillets for garnish.
Serve immediately with steamed rice, quinoa, or a side of your choice.
