New (to me) seasonal sea bass recipe . . .

Sea Bass with Apples

6 T butter
2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into thin wedges
¼ C honey
4-6 6-oz sea bass fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
All-purpose flour for coating
1 beaten egg for coating
Dry bread crumbs for coating

Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and sauté the apples until tender, about 10 minutes.

Stir in the honey, reduce the heat, and keep warm.

Season the sea bass with salt and pepper and coat by dredging in the flour, dipping in the egg, and then dredging in bread crumbs.

Heat the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in another skillet over moderate heat and sauté the fish fillets until golden brown on both sides and the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Transfer the fish to serving dishes and spoon the apple mixture over them.

Serves 4 to 6.

Originating chef’s notes: The sweet tartness of the apples and
the crispy fried fish make an unexpectedly good combination.
Use any firm white-fleshed fish such as catfish if sea bass isn't
available.


I like simple quick and easy recipes like this. Usually make them often
as a kitchen standard.

Enjoy!

    We still use our mayo coating, then pankow bread crumbs and fry them or have even grilled them with just a lemon/spices mixture, then cover them with sweet peppers and onions that we saute. Excellent.

    Matter of fact, this time I used the Pankow bread crumbs . . . and will never go back.

    Have to say after having made it, I would never do again.

    Too many other better recipes and better fish.
