Black Sea Bass


Broiled Black Sea Bass

Serves 4


Ingredients


8 small fillets (2 per person) (or you could use 4 larger fillets)

Extra virgin olive oil cooking spray

Tony Chachare's Cajun seasoning, to taste

1/2 fresh lemon, juiced

4 Tbsp seasoned bread crumb

1/2 cup 2% shredded Mexican blend cheese


On the side:

 

1 spaghetti squash, holes poked on all sides, wrapped in wet kitchen towel

Tastefully simple Onion Onion seasoning, to taste

1-2 bags fresh broccoli and cauliflower mix (my husband and I can eat one whole bag at a sitting)


Directions


1. Step one will cover getting the entire dinner cooking so everything is done at the same time. 

  • Preheat broiler. 
  • Microwave spaghetti squash wrapped in towel on high for eight to ten minutes (or until soft), turning half way through.
  • Place bag of veggies in steamer and turn to 15 minutes or so.
  • In a small bowl mix the breadcrumb and cheese.


2.  Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.  Add the fillets and sprinkle Cajun seasoning.  Turn to coat then squeeze half lemon over fillets.


3. Broil 5 to 6 minutes on one side then flip and broil an additional 5 minutes or so.  (Times will vary with thickness of fish so watch it as it cooks fast!)


4. Remove from oven and top evenly with breadcrumb/cheese mixture.  Place back under broiler for 2 minutes.


5. Split cooked spaghetti squash in half.  Scoop out seeds and with a fork remove strands to a medium size bowl.  Season with Onion Onion to taste.


6.  Plate 1 cup of seasoned spaghetti squash, 2 small fillets and 1 to 2 cups steamed broccoli/cauliflower.
