GRILLED SEA BASS WITH CHILI-LIME DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Whisk garlic, lime zest, rice vinegar, fish sauce, lime juice, chile pepper sauce, and sesame oil in a glass bowl.
• Brush both sides of sea bass fillets with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
• Cook on the preheated grill until fish is opaque, shows good grill marks, and springs back when pressed lightly, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer fillets to a serving platter.
• Whisk dressing again; taste and and adjust seasoning. Drizzle dressing over warm fish. Sprinkle fillets with cilantro leaves.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILI LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the butter in a small bowl, add the chili powder, lime peel, lime juice, jalapeño and salt and mix well.
• Shape the butter into any form you like, cover and place in the refrigerator until shortly before ready to serve, at which time allow butter to soften.
• Heat grill to medium-high.
• Place corn (in husk) on the grill, rotating the corn so you cook on all sides, for approximately 15 minutes total.
• Remove from grill and cool slightly (so you are able to peel the husk) and peel. Place corn back on grill over the same flame for about 4 minutes, once again rotating the corn for even grill marks.
• Serve the corn immediately with the chili lime butter.
• Cooking option: Place the corn (in the husk) on a plate and microwave for 5 minutes (21/2 minutes per side); when ready to grill, remove the husks and grill over a medium-high flame for about 2 minutes per side.

CHILI-LIME BLUEFISH GRILLED WITH RED PEPPERS AND CORN

Steps:

• Combine the the lime juice, jalapenos, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a large, shallow glass or ceramic dish. Cut diagonal slashes in the skin of the bluefish and place, skin side up, in the marinade. Spoon some of the marinade over the skin. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat a charcoal grill. Pull back the husks of the corn, remove the silk and cover the corn with the husks again. Soak in water for 10 minutes. Place the corn on the grill for 10 minutes, turning them one-quarter turn after 5 minutes.
• Place the fish, skin side up, on the grill with the corn. Place the peppers on the grill. Grill the fish for 7 minutes. Turn it over carefully and grill until just cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
• Grill the peppers until charred, about 5 minutes per side. Grill the corn until tender, about 10 minutes longer, turning twice.
• Cut the fish in half lengthwise. Cut again crosswise, making roughly equal pieces. Season with salt to taste. Place 1 piece of fish, 1 ear of corn and 2 pieces of red pepper on each of 4 plates and serve immediately, with hot corn bread.
