I have tried many recipes on the Pioneer Woman Cooks website, and they've all been good. But this one was amazing!

The only thing that I did differently, was for the portion of time that the sea bass was in the oven, I had it on a cedar plank instead of leaving it in the pan.

Served it with cous cous and broiled zucchini with garlic butter with fresh dill in it.

If it tastes anything remotely like the chillean sea bass at Bonefish then its a winner. For a chain, its some kinda good.

Wonder if Red Lobster or Olive Garden has sea bass?

I wasn't that impressed w/ the Sea Bass at Bonefish actually. Sea Bass at Mayas though is DELICIOUS!

She puts a can of mushroom soup on it and broils it.

Sea Bass is an entirely different fish than Chilean Sea Bass, which actually isn't a bass at all, but that's germans. Which are we talking about because it seems like the two are being interchanged here.

I'll have to try the one at Bonefish.

The best sea bass I've ever had was one that a friend did for me on a cedar plank in a big green egg. It was phenomenal.

After that, would be the sea bass at Tsunami.

I'd say that the one I cooked the other night with this recipe was right up there with that one...but not as good as being done in the BGE.

I think the best ever would be to do one on a cedar plank in the BGE and then top it with the shallot lemon butter from PWC FTW!

I cut the zucchini lengthwise down the middle. I cover them with water in a pan on the stove and boil them on med high heat for about 12-14 minutes.

Melt about a 1/2 stick of butter and sprinkle in some garlic power and add about 2 tablespoons of fresh dill.

Put them on a pan and top with the dill butter mixture, salt (light if the butter is salted), pepper and some parm cheese. I used the stuff in the green can and it was great.

Broiled them for a couple of minutes until the cheese got golden.

Hmmm...interesting. Honestly, I didn't know that.

I'm not sure which one I bought then. LOL

I got it at Robert's Fresh Market for $30 a pound if that tells you anything.

Interesting though. Learn something new every day.

I love em both, but they're two distinct fish. Bonefish features Chilean Sea Bass which I usually get with the mango salsa ftw. It's a fish that has a taste and texture of crab meat, and is very forgiving when cooking. I know for a fact that Louisiana Cajun Seafood on Coursey always has a supply in their freezer section. The price has really shot up over the past few years and some chefs will shun it because it's not sustainable. A very easy way to prepare this fish is to simply steam it.

Sea Bass, (black, striped, etc) usually is pan sauteed with the skin on for presentation and a crispy texture and has a tendency to dry out easier than Chilean Sea Bass.

I'm no expert on either, but I noticed them being discussed as the same.
