Ingredients:
2 serrano chiles, grilled and chopped |
3 tablespoons diced red onions |
2 cloves finely chopped garlic |
2 tablespoons dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup olive oil |
3 tablespoons finely chopped basil leaves |
4 whole sea bass (1 pound each), scaled and gutted, head and tail intact |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 teaspoons kosher salt |
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper |
1 bunch fresh basil |
Directions:
1. Place chiles, onion, garlic, mustard, vinegar and salt and pepper in a blender and blend until combined. With the motor running, slowly add the oil and blend until emulsified. Pour into a bowl and stir in the chopped basil. 2. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the fish with the oil and season each with 1 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper, including the cavity. Stuff the cavity of each fish with some of the basil. Grill each fish until slightly charred on 1 side, about 4 to 5 minutes. Using a heavy duty spatula, carefully turn the fish over, close the cover and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the grill and immediately drizzle each fish with 2 tablespoons of vinaigrette. |
