It's big, flaky and tasty. Chilean sea bass is one of the most popular fishes in deep, cold waters, and tonight one chef is showing us how to cook it with a special wine sauce. Time to grab A Bite with Belkys.

The Chef: Herb Riexinger

The Dish: Chilean sea bass with a Tarragon shallot white wine sauce

Ingredients:

Sea Bass
Olive oil

- Start with the Sea Bass.

- Gently remove the skin and all the bones, or you can buy it already filleted at a local fish market.

- Then pour a little bit of olive oil over the fish.

- Then add some water to your pan, so it doesn't overcook and lemon juice over the top for extra flavor.
