Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 lb chilean sea bass fillet, bones removed, cut into serving pieces
• 3/4 cup orange juice
• 3 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar or 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 garlic cloves (minced or pressed)
• 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes

Recipe

• 1 rinse the chilean sea bass with cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
• 2 set the fish in a shallow dish.
• 3 stir together the remaining ingredients in a small bowl until well combined, then pour over the fish, turning the fish so that it is evenly coated.
• 4 cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 3 hours.
• 5 preheat a charcoal grill or the broiler.
• 6 grill or broil the fish about 4 inches from the heat until well browned on one side, 3 to 5 minutes; brush with more marinade and cook on the other side until the fish is no longer opaque in the center, about 5 minutes longer.
• 7 note: if cooking the chilean sea bass on a charcoal grill, be sure that the fillet pieces are at least 1 1/2 inches thick to ensure that the fish won't fall apart when it is cooked.
