Low Residue diets limit fibrous vegetables like fennel bulb, but only a modest amount goes into each serving, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid fennel bulb, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

Low Residue diets limit fibrous vegetables like leeks, but only the more tender white and light green parts are used and the amount per serving is modest, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid leek, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

Low residue diets limit seeds and coarse spices. Only a trace of fresh ginger is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.


Butter is almost all fat and has no fiber, so the small amount here (about 3/4 teaspoon per serving) leaves very little residue. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

Low residue diets limit fibrous leafy greens and herbs. Parsley is used here only as a small amount of chopped fresh herb for seasoning, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh parsley, please tap it and change its rating to Red.


Pat the sea bass fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels, then season the flesh side with the salt. Let the fillets rest at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare the sauce ingredients.
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a 12-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and a drop of water flicked in sizzles immediately. Place the fillets skin-side down and press each one gently with a fish spatula for the first 30 seconds to prevent curling. Sear undisturbed for 4–5 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and the flesh has turned opaque about two-thirds of the way up the sides.
