Description

This grilled sea bass recipe delivers a burst of Mediterranean freshness with every bite. The delicate white fish is paired with a vibrant mixture of briny Kalamata olives, sweet cherry tomatoes, and aromatic garlic. Fresh thyme adds an earthy note that complements the rich olive oil. Perfect for a light summer dinner or a healthy weeknight meal, this dish comes together in under 30 minutes. The grilling method ensures the fish stays moist while infusing it with a subtle smoky flavor. Serve with crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices from the tomatoes and olives.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium heat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine halved Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, halved garlic cloves, fresh thyme sprigs, and olive oil. Toss gently to coat.
  3. Season the sea bass fillets lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
  4. Place the seasoned sea bass fillets and the olive-tomato mixture into a mesh fish basket or a grill-safe container with holes to prevent small ingredients from falling through.
  5. Place the basket on the preheated grill. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side.
  6. Carefully turn the basket or fillets and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, or until the fish flesh begins to flake easily when tested with the tip of a sharp knife.
  7. Remove from the grill and transfer immediately to a warmed serving platter. Serve hot.

Note

If you do not have a fish basket, you can grill the vegetables in a cast-iron skillet or a grill-safe pan alongside the fish, or place the fish on foil packets with the vegetable mixture inside.

Ensure your grill grates are well-oiled to prevent the fish from sticking.

This dish pairs beautifully with a simple green salad or roasted asparagus.
