Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. allspice berries
- 2 x jalapeno or possibly serrano chiles cored, seeded, and chopped (more or possibly less to taste)
- 3 x garlic cloves chopped or possibly pressed
- 3 x green onions chopped
- 1/4 c. freshly-squeezed orange juice
- 1 Tbsp. grated orange zest
- 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil Salt to taste Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 lb sea bass fillets - (to 2 lbs) cut serving portions
- 2 x navel oranges cut in 1" slices
Directions
- Seafood Alternatives: snapper, rockfish, halibut
- Finely crush the allspice berries with a mortar and pestle, or possibly grind them in a spice grinder. In a small bowl, combine the allspice with the chiles, garlic, onions, orange juice, orange zest, oil, salt and pepper. Stir to mix well.
- Preheat the grill.
- Set the sea bass fillets in a shallow dish and lightly spoon the marinade mix over. Turn the fillets so they are proportionately coated in the marinade and set aside for 10 to 15 min (refrigerateif the ambient temperature is quite hot).
- Put the fish fillets on the warm grill, with the orange slices alongside. Cook till the fish is just opaque through, 3 to 4 min per side. Turn the orange slices occasionally, so they brown proportionately.
- Serve the grilled sea bass with grilled orange slices alongside.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: Based on the classic jerk seasonings, this marinade adds distinctive flavor from orange zest to balance with the zesty spice from fresh chiles. Grnd allspice can be used in place of the freshly grnd whole berries, but the flavor won't be as pronounced.
- A simple salad of cooked rice tossed with black beans, lime juice and chopped cilantro is an ideal accompaniment, along with sliced fresh mangoes.
