October 31, 2024
Recipe

Serve these fish fillets over a bed of sauteed spinach, which boosts the vitamins and minerals in the meal.

Serves 2

Serve these broiled sea bass fillets over a bed of sauteed spinach. Spinach adds nutrients such as vitamin A, folate, riboflavin, calcium and iron to your meal. If you prefer, you can use red snapper, halibut or cod instead of the sea bass.


Preheat the broiler or grill.

Position the rack 4 inches from the heat source. Lightly spray a baking pan with cooking spray. Place the fillets in the pan.

Sprinkle the lemon juice, garlic, herbed seasoning and pepper over the fillets. Broil or grill until the fish isn't transparent throughout, called opaque, when tested with the tip of a knife, about 8 to 10 minutes.

Serve right away.


  • 2 white sea bass fillets, each 4 ounces
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt-free herb seasoning blend
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
