Categories     Milk/Cream     Herb     Onion     Tomato     Low Carb     Quick & Easy     Bass     Grill/Barbecue     Bon Appétit     Florida

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons minced shallots
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
1 1/2 cups diced seeded plum tomatoes
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon
4 6-ounce sea bass fillets

Steps:

  • Combine 2 tablespoons shallots, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and vinegar in heavy small saucepan. Boil until almost no liquid remains in saucepan, about 5 minutes.

  • Bring sauce to simmer; spoon around fish. Top fish with tomato mixture; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm tomatoes for grilling. Avoid tomatoes with blemishes or bruises.

  • Grill the tomatoes over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
