Picked up some Chilean Sea Bass Steaks today at Fresh Market for supper tonight. Did a basic rub of EVOO,Lemon Juice and S&P

Got the sweet potato stackers goin and moved on to the pesto Pretty simple pesto of parsley,garlic,walnuts,S&P and EVOO

did the Sea Bass on the small 500° raised direct till it hit 120 then dropped down for a quick sear. No pics of the egg in action but where else would I cook it??

Plated with SP stackers and some steamed veggies

great fish. Be prepared to pay like prime beef, but we live but once, right.

It has an awesome buttery taste. I have had it a few times before but this was my first for cooking it. It might be pricey but it was still cheaper and tasted just as good as some of the restaurants we've gotten it at. Gotta splurge every once in a while and my wife loved it. I considered it a win x3.
. Thanks for all the above compliments!!

Sea bass can mean only one thing:

Very nice Matt! How sweet did it turn out? The only time I cooked it it had a very sweet flavor and i wasn't sure if it was the fish or the marinade.

Awesome looking meal.  This is one of my favorites, but I have not made it at home.  I usually order it if it is on the menu when dining out for business dinners.

Patagonian dochefish?

That is interesting about the name:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patagonian_toothfish

"The name "Chilean Seabass" was invented by a fish wholesaler named Lee Lantz in 1977. He was looking for a name that would make it attractive to the American market. He considered "Pacific sea bass" and "South American sea bass" before settling on "Chilean sea bass".^[2][3] In 1994, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted "Chilean Seabass" as an "alternative market name" for Patagonian toothfish"

It wasn't overly sweet but had a nice buttery taste.
