Main ingredients
- 2 fillets Chilean sea bass
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Cooking
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet.
- Season the sea bass fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the fillets in the hot skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.

- Once cooked, remove from the heat and let rest for a minute.
- Serve garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges on the side.
Notes
Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh garlic and parsley make a significant difference. Don’t skip the resting step after cooking; this allows the juices to redistribute, keeping your fish moist. Feel free to add a splash of white wine to the skillet for extra flavor.
