Ingredients
- 4 pieces sea bass fillets
- 1 cup artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained and quartered)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Pat the sea bass fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Place the sea bass fillets skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the skin is crispy. Flip the fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid browning.
Step 5
Add the quartered artichoke hearts to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until lightly caramelized.
Step 6
Pour in the balsamic vinegar and lemon juice, stirring to deglaze the skillet. Let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the liquid to slightly reduce.
Step 7
Return the cooked sea bass fillets to the skillet, spooning the sauce and artichokes over the fish to coat evenly.
Step 8
Sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley and serve immediately, pairing it with your favorite side such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
