Sea Bass Fillets

Store fresh fillets tightly wrapped in the coldest part of your refrigerator. For longer storage, freeze in an airtight container or vacuum-sealed bag.

Pat fillets dry thoroughly with paper towels before cooking to ensure a good sear.

Avoid overcooking, as sea bass can dry out quickly. It's done when it flakes easily with a fork.

Bake, pan-sear, grill, or poach sea bass for delicious results.

Lemon, herbs like dill and parsley, garlic, and butter are classic flavor pairings.
