Sea Bass is great way to get the health benefits of fish while enjoying a tropical flavor profile. Since this species of fish is found in warm water, it’s no surprise that it goes great with fruit found in similar climates. Mango, lemongrass, coconut, lime, and lemon work in harmony to create a delicious taste reminiscent of the flavors found on an island paradise. Not only does fruit have an appealing taste, but also the bright colors of the tropical fruit are pleasing to the eye when the dish is plated, following these six quick steps.
