Reviews
It was amazing. I didn’t have chopped tomatoes so I substituted with 7 oz of tomato sauce.
I didn’t flour the fish, but I seasoned it according to the recipe and I followed the directions accordingly.
The fish was flaky and delicious. I definitely recommend it.

Quick and easy! Seasoned flour with parsley, onion and garlic powder. Used chicken broth instead of water in the sauce.
Served with couscous and roasted green beans.

Delicious!!!
The sea bass comes out perfect every time. It’s like velvet on your tongue.
Really good and easy! Fun having the fresh basil and parsley growing just outside my door!
Totally delicious! I only spritzed with avocado oil ,in non stick pan…3 minutes each side …did the sauce on the side and served with spaghetti squash!! I really don’t think you could ruin this fish!
Delicious and light!
Perfect
I read all the reviews and used a few of the tips, such as using white wine instead of water, using diced tomato (fire roasted) for a flavor pop.
I’ve never been disappointed in any Giada recipe, and this is another win.
