Grilled Sea Bass over Vegetable Salad with Cilantro Vinaigrette

Friday, March 8, 2013 22:11

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I’ve been craving vegetables, in anticipation of spring. So when I went over to Whole Foods Market the other day I couldn’t resist. In my opinion, there isn’t a more beautiful selection of produce anywhere. Their displays of brightly colored fresh produce is spectacular.

Walking through the produce isles I gathered up a few things I thought might be tasty for a salad to set fresh fish on. Corn on the cob, avocados, tomatoes, red onion, orange pepper, mango, cilantro and although I wanted cucumbers, my daughter is allergic to them. I wanted raw veggies, otherwise, I would have selected a slew of different items to roast, but this was perfect. Of course, the corn would go on the grill along with the fish I selected.

I had hoped for some Halibut but they were out, so I opted for the Sea Bass, a mild buttery fish that has always been a favorite of mine.

I headed home to whip up a healthy dish for my husband, daughter and myself.

This dish was so simple to prepare and since our kitchen cabinets are in the process of being repainted, space was limited, but it wasn’t an issue.

After washing and slicing my salad ingredients, I whipped up a Cilantro Vinaigrette, and popped the corn and fish onto the grill. We enjoyed springtime on a plate, and it was delicious!

I hope you’ll try this recipe. If you’re not a fan of fish, and I know many of you aren’t, then add grilled chicken or even tofu if you’re vegan. This dish won’t disappoint you.

To Serve:

Place a large spoonful of the vegetable salad on each plate, center fish on top and drizzle Cilantro Vinaigrette over the top.
