Seared Sea Bass on a bed of roasted red peppers, tomatoes, and garlic; topped with a garlicky mayonnaise. Simple enough for weeknights, but elegant enough for company.
Place tomatoes and roasted red peppers in a food processor bowl. Pulse until chopped well, about 3 times.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Add coriander and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in tomato mixture, sugar, and crushed red pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon oil, parsley, 1 teaspoon vinegar, and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
Make the Garlic Mayo:
Mix mayonnaise, paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic, and ½ teaspoon vinegar in a small bowl. Set aside.
Cook the Sea Bass:
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish, skin side down and press lightly so fish stays flat. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 6-7 minutes, or until skin is browned. Flip the fish and cook for 1-2 minutes. Fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ teaspoon salt.
Plate and Serve:
Divide relish evenly between six plates. Top with one fish fillet and a dollop of garlic mayo.
