Chilean Sea Bass with Mediterranean Rub
| This fish dish is a nice way to have a low-calorie meal with a great deal of flavor. Dried lavender can be found in specialty food shops. |
| 2 tablespoons kosher salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
| 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, crushed |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
| 1 tablespoon fresh parsley |
4 Chilean sea bass fillets (about 1/4 pound each) |
| 1.5 teaspoons dried garlic flakes |
Olive oil spray for spraying fish |
| 1 teaspoon dried lavender |
|
To make the rub: Combine the kosher salt, rosemary, parsley, garlic flakes, lavender, thyme and pepper in a small skillet and place over low heat for 3 minutes to toast lightly and bring out the herbs' flavors. Allow to cool.
Rinse fillets and pat dry. Lightly spray fish with olive oil, then sprinkle about 1.5 teaspoons of rub on each fillet. Grill seasoned fillets over Direct Medium heat until fish is opaque, about 6 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time. Serve with mashed grilled sweet potatoes, if desired.
