Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Whisk garlic, lime zest, rice vinegar, fish sauce, lime juice, chile pepper sauce, and sesame oil in a glass bowl. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Brush both sides of sea bass fillets with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Cook on the preheated grill until fish is opaque, shows good grill marks, and springs back when pressed lightly, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer fillets to a serving platter. (8 minutes)

05

Step

Whisk dressing again; taste and and adjust seasoning. Drizzle dressing over warm fish. Sprinkle fillets with cilantro leaves. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the sea bass in the chili-lime dressing for 15-20 minutes before grilling. Be careful not to overcook the fish; it should be moist and tender.
Serve with a side of coconut rice or grilled asparagus for a complete and satisfying meal.

    I didn't have any sea bass on hand, so I used salmon instead, and it worked great!

    This is my go-to recipe for a quick and easy weeknight dinner. It's so simple to make, but it tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant!

  • Francisco Kertzmann

    I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of fish sauce, but it was actually really good! The flavors balanced each other out perfectly, and the sea bass was so tender and flaky.

  • Peter Spinkapredovic

    Delicious and quick! Will definitely make again.

  • Wyatt Goodwin

    I added a little bit of honey to the chili-lime dressing to sweeten it up a bit, and it was delicious!
