Seared Chilean Sea Bass with Potatoes & Herb Sauce ~I never order fish when dining out unless it is cod or Orange Roughy. My sister orders all kinds and keeps trying to get me to taste it. But once when I was a kid I choked on a bone and that replays in my mind over and over. We always spent Christmas with my aunts and uncles at Lake Okechobee in Florida and ate our catch. I never had to worry though, my boy cousins always through my catch back saying they were too small. That was ok, I liked peanut butter better. My Yorkshire Pudding will go perfectly with the Seared Chilean Sea Bass.

- Place scallions in same skillet; cook 1 minute or until slightly softened and charred in spots.
- Divide yogurt, potatoes, fish and scallions between 4 plates. Spoon green juice around fish and garnish with cilantro.
