Living in the middle of the Rocky Mountains, this is a new fish to me... Filets were on sale at my Sprout's Market, so I took the plunge. Half of the filet is thick and half is thinner, similar to cod.

Does anyone have a healthy, yummy way to prepare this mystery fish? Can I simply bake it with herbs and lemon zest and perhaps a sprinkle of panko crumbs, or does it require a moist cooking method?

Thanks!

    You can Google it and many recipes will come up.I have never cooked this fish but I have cooked lake bass in half oil and half butter.I always rolled the fish in flour first.

    Thanks!
    I'm hoping that it will also work well without any added fat, as we try to keep our fat % way down (DH has had sextuple bypass). I've been making cod with a light smear of low-fat garlic mayo on top, with light panko/herb/lemon zest crumbs on top... it comes out great... but not sure what the texture of this fish is like.

    Update: Corvina Sea Bass is very similar in taste and texture to Mahi Mahi. Not my favorite, so I will add it to the "tried it once" category, and go back to lurking at the seafood counter. Once I win the Lottol, I will buy a lovely Swordfish Steak instead. :bigsmile:
