May On The Farm

May is a wonderful time of year on the Farm, its when we see so many trees and flowers show off their beautiful spring colors. The trees are leafing out and so many blossoms are emerging in the gardens. This view showcases the vineyard where we start to see the first hints of green in a process called “bud break”.

Kirin’s Pan Seared Asian Sea Bass

Serves: 4

Cook time: 25 mins.

Prep time: 20 mins.

Kirin made this exquisite pan-seared sea bass last night and it was so flavorful & flaky! Sea bass is a great source of two different types of Omega-3 fatty acids! I incorporate fish into my diet at least twice a week for its amazing health benefits. Savory aromas and a touch of heat rounds this dish out for an amazing weekday entrée! He paired it with steamed brown jasmine rice and broccoli and purchased the ingredients from the Brentwood Farmers Market. 

Ingredients 

  • 2 tbsp organic white wine vinegar (Gourmet Blends at our Calabasas location)
  • ¼ cup organic maple syrup
  • ¼ cup organic Szechaun spicy stir fry sauce (Try My Thai)
  • 3 tbsp organic GF Tamari or soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp organic pure sesame oil 
  • 1 tsp freshly grated organic ginger (Hernandez Brother’s Farms)
  • 2” thick wild caught sea bass filets (Dry Dock Fish)

Instructions

  • Mix all the sauce ingredients together. Then heat a large cast iron skillet on medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil to the pan and gently place the filets in. Pan sear on each side for 30 seconds. 
  • Turn the oven broiler on high, pour the sauce over the fish and put the casket iron skillet in the oven. Broil the fish for 12 minutes on each side. Remove the skillet & enjoy! You can enjoy this dish with steamed jasmine rice, over a salad or with a side of steamed vegetables. Healthy & delicious!
