Method
- Preheat the grill to hot and put a baking tray under it (choose a good strong one that won't buckle).
- Make the glaze by mixing all the ingredients together. If it tastes too sweet (some limes are sweeter than others), add a splash of red or white wine vinegar.
- Brush the skin side of each sea bass fillet with olive oil. Brush the flesh side with the glaze, keeping 1 tsp back. Season well. When the tray is hot, carefully slide it out and put the sea bass fillets on it, skin-side down. Then slide back under the grill and cook for 4-5 mins or until the fish is cooked through. The timing on this will depend on the strength of your grill and how far from the heat your tray is.
- While the fish is cooking, put the remaining glaze in a small bowl with the spring onion, chilli and a splash of olive oil (enough to coat the ingredients). Transfer the cooked fillets onto warmed plates and top each with the glaze, plus some spring onion and chilli to serve.
