Simple Oven-Baked Sea Bass....YUMMMM!

Serves 2...
Ingredients:
1 lb. sea bass
3 garlic cloves, minced or crushed
1 tablespoon EVOO
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
2 teaspoons fresh coarse black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 lemon wedges
1/3 c. white wine vinegar or white wine (both optional)

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 450.
  2. In a small bowl, combine garlic, EVOO, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place fish in baking dish (assuming fish has been cleaned and scaled). I buy "ready" filets at Whole Foods/Fresh Market.
  4. Rub fish with oil mixture.
  5. (Optional) Pour wine over fish.
  6. Bake fish, uncovered, for 15 minutes; then sprinkle with Italian Seasoning and continue to bake for 5 more minutes (or until thickest part of fish flakes easily).
  7. Drizzle remaining pan juices over fish using baster, and garnish with lemon wedges.
  8. Serve with veggie and warm bread.
  9. Enjoy!
