Ingredients

  • 2 Oolong Tea Bags
  • 1 cup Hot Water
  • 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger finely grated
  • Four 6-ounce Chilean Sea Bass Fillets
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Green Onions thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Steep oolong tea bags in 1 cup hot water for 5 minutes. Remove bags and allow tea to cool slightly.
  • In a bowl, whisk together cooled oolong tea, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger to create a marinade.
  • Place sea bass fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag.
  • Pour marinade over filets, covering completely. Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Remove fillets from marinade, letting excess drip off. Reserve marinade.
  • Sear sea bass fillets for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and just cooked through, lowering heat if needed.
  • Bring reserved marinade to a boil in a small saucepan and reduce slightly to form a glossy glaze.
  • Drizzle glaze over cooked fillets.
  • Garnish with green onions before serving.
