This elegant dish features a "meli melo" or mixed platter of fresh sea bass fillets and plump shrimp, grilled to perfection for a smoky char and tender bite.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Clean and slice the white parts of the leeks into thin julienne strips.
  2. Pat the sea bass fillets and shrimp dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Brush the grill grates with a little oil. Grill the sea bass fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side until just cooked through and flaky. Set aside.
  4. Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes, turning once, until pink and opaque. Remove from grill.
  5. For the sauce, sauté the julienned leeks in a small saucepan with a splash of water until tender. Drain and discard the liquid.
  6. Return the pan to low heat. Whisk in cold butter cubes one at a time, followed by a splash of soy sauce, until the sauce is emulsified and glossy.
  7. Arrange the grilled fish and shrimp on serving plates. Drizzle generously with the warm Soy Beurre Blanc and serve immediately.
