Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the Moho Sauce:
4 large cloves of garlic, peeled and thinly sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup thinly slivered onion
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon white-wine vinegar
2 fillets of Chilean sea bass (about 1 pound each)
4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 large cloves of garlic, peeled and pressed
1 ripe avocado, for serving
3/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare the Moho Sauce: Mix the garlic and onion in a small bowl with the cumin, salt, and pepper. Place the oil in a small, heavy saucepan over low heat. Add the onion mixture and cook, stirring, for 10 minutes or until translucent. Add the lime juice and vinegar, then simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. (Makes 2/3 cup.)
  • 2. Halve the sea bass fillets crosswise (into 8-ounce pieces).
  • 3. In a shallow bowl, whisk the lime juice with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic. Add the fish and coat well. Marinate for 15 minutes. Remove and pat dry.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • 5. With a very sharp knife, score the skin side of the fish twice diagonally to prevent curling.
  • 6. Place the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a nonstick skillet. Sear the fish, skin-side down, over medium heat, holding the fillets down with a spatula until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
  • 7. Remove fish to an ovenproof dish or skillet and bake in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • 8. Meanwhile, set the Moho Sauce over very low heat and gently heat through.
  • 9. Peel and slice the avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit and slice each half into thin slices lengthwise.
  • 10. To serve, place a fish fillet in the center of each of 4 dinner plates. Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of Moho Sauce atop each fillet. Fan 3 or 4 slices of avocado atop each serving and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Place a bowl of the extra cilantro and a bowl of Moho Sauce on the table.
