No items found.

Ingredients: 

  • 50 g (1¾ oz) unsalted pistachios
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for brushing
  • 4 large sea bass fillets, pin-boned
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 large sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons pine nuts

Directions: 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) fan-forced.
  • Blitz the pistachios in a food processor to a chunky, coarse consistency. Set aside in a small bowl.
  • Line a roasting tin with baking parchment and brush with a little olive oil so the fish won’t stick.
  • Add the fish fillets, skin side down, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Evenly sprinkle a heaped teaspoon of the ground pistachio over each fillet.
  • Top with a teaspoon of sun-dried tomato, a few pine nuts, a little salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Bake for 10–11 minutes or until the fish is white and flaky.
  • Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
  • Serving suggestion: Delicious with garlicky grilled tomatoes, crispy new potatoes with capers, peperonata, vinegary fried zucchini, or other grilled vegetables.

    For a simple side, serve with thinly sliced potatoes tossed with olive oil and sea salt, then roasted in a hot oven for about 20 minutes.
