Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450F°.

• Place fish in a shallow glass or ceramic baking dish.
• Rub fish with oil mixture.
• (Optional) Pour wine over fish.
• Bake fish, uncovered, for 15 minutes; then sprinkle with parsley or Italian seasoning and continue to bake for 5 more minutes (or until the thickest part of the fish flakes easily).
• Drizzle remaining pan juices over fish and garnish with lemon wedges.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the fish on a flat surface and sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper. Stuff it with parsley and shallots.
• Roll out one sheet of puff pastry into a rectangle about 16 by 9 inches. Arrange the pastry on a large baking sheet. Arrange the fish lengthwise over the center of the pastry and brush around the fish with some of the egg yolk mixture.
• Roll out the second sheet into a rectangle and place it over the fish. Press the pastry around the sides of the fish to seal it. Use a sharp knife to cut away the pastry around the fish, leaving a border of about one-and-a-half inches. Use the sharp knife to vent the pastry in the middle of the fish if desired. If you wish, trim the pastry into the shape of a fish and decorate the top with a scale pattern or cutouts. Brush the pastry with the remaining egg yolk mixture.
• Place the fish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the pastry is lightly browned. Reduce the temperature to 400 degrees. If necessary, cover the crust with aluminum foil. Cook for 15 minutes longer.
• While the fish is baking, combine the shallots and wine in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the wine has nearly evaporated.
• Add the cream and reduce by half. Add the butter quickly, one tablespoon at a time, whisking constantly. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the herbs, salt, pepper and Pernod.
• Remove the fish from the oven and serve with the Pernod beurre blanc sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Heat olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, sear fish skin side down. Saute for a couple of minutes, add some whole butter to pan and place in 500 degrees oven to finish, don't turn fish onto flesh side. This process should take 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Make sure the pan is oven proof, if not transfer fish to a baking sheet. For the asparagus, break them near the bottom at the natural breaking point. Add to heavily salted boiling water and cook until tender, drain and finish in a saute pan with whole butter. For the beurre blanc, place the shallots and white wine in saucepan and sweat the shallots. Add the butter a little at a time whisking constantly. When all of the butter is incorporated, whisk in the heavy cream. Finish with sweet port. Place the black bass in the middle of the plate, mound the asparagus on top of the fish, nap with beurre blanc, and garnish with chervil and chives.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the peppers and onions with seasoning plus a small drizzle of olive oil. Spread on a baking tray and cook for 5 mins.
• Toss in the garlic and lemon with the onions and peppers. Sit on the sea bass, brush fish with a little more oil, season fish and roast for 15 mins.
• Stir the olives and pine nuts into the veg and roast for 5 mins more until the fish is just cooked through. Squeeze over some lemon juice and scatter with parsley to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine the kosher salt and orange zest and juice in a large bowl. Add room temperature water 1/2 cup at a time until the mixture feels like wet sand. Spread 1/3 of the mixture on a baking sheet and flatten to the same shape of the fish. Lay the fish on top of the salt. Season the cavity with a little of the salt and stuff with the sliced lemon and parsley sprigs. Top the fish with the remaining salt mixture, covering the fish completely and pressing lightly to pack the salt onto the fish.
• Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the fish registers 135 to 140 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the fish from the oven and sit at room temperature for 8 to 10 minutes.
• While the fish rests, combine the wine, vinegar, shallot and capers in a small saucepan and place over high heat. Cook until reduced by half, about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream. Stir in the butter a few chunks at a time, stirring until the butter is melted before adding more. Remove from the heat, season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Use the back of a spoon to break through the salt and remove the chunks, peeling the skin away with the salt. Gently separate the flesh from the bones with a spoon or fish spatula and portion onto plates. Serve with the sauce and sprinkle with the chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Whisk mirin, white miso, sake, and sugar in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish to combine. Add sea bass; turn to coat. Cover fish and refrigerate 2 hours.
• Boil white wine, chopped shallots, chopped garlic, bay leaf, and black peppercorns in heavy large saucepan until reduced to 3/4 cup, about 7 minutes. Add whipping cream and boil until reduced to 1 cup, about 6 minutes. Strain into medium saucepan, pressing on solids. Place over low heat. Add unsalted butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until melted before adding more. Remove from heat. Whisk in fresh lemon juice. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Oil rimmed baking sheet. Remove fish from marinade; transfer to prepared sheet. Bake until almost opaque in center, about 10 minutes. Preheat broiler. Broil fish until well-browned on top and opaque in center, watching closely to avoid burning, about 3 minutes. Transfer fish to plates. Spoon sauce around and serve.
• Mirin and miso are available at Japanese markets and in the Asian foods section of some supermarkets.
