Sea Bass all'Acqua Pazza
Ingredients
- Sea bass: 1.5 kg (approx. 3.3 lbs)
- Cherry tomatoes: 300 g (approx. 10.5 oz)
- Fresh chili pepper: 1
- Garlic: 1 clove
- Fresh parsley: 1 small bunch
- White wine: 1 glass
- Olive oil: as needed
- Salt: to taste
- Water: 1/2 glass

Instructions
- Pour a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil into a skillet.
- Add the peeled garlic clove and the fresh chili pepper, then let them sauté for 2 minutes.
- Season with a pinch of salt.
- Pour in the white wine.
- Add half a glass of water and let it cook for 5 minutes. It is recommended not to add any further water to prevent the fish from turning out boiled.
- If necessary, transfer the sauce to a larger pan, arrange the sea bass over the cherry tomatoes, and season with fresh parsley and basil.
- Cover with a lid and cook for about 20 minutes, until the flesh of the fish is tender yet firm and flakes easily off the central bone.
- Transfer the sea bass all'acqua pazza to a serving platter and serve immediately, piping hot.
