Striped Bass with tomatoes
Here is a very good striped bass recipe I tried the other night. I omitted the mussels and shrimp and it was still excellent! I will try with all three next time. I also did not include Pernod as I do not know what that is.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons good olive oil
- 1 cup chopped yellow onions
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 1 (28-ounce) can plum tomatoes, drained and diced
- 1 teaspoon saffron threads
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup Pernod, optional
- 1 (2 to 3-pound) striped bass fillet, skin removed
- 1 pound large shrimp, shelled and deveined
- 24 mussels, cleaned and debearded
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Heat the oil in a medium saute pan and saute the onion over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the tomatoes, saffron, salt, pepper, white wine, and Pernod, if using, and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, lay the fish in a 10-by-14-inch baking dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and mussels to the dish. Pour the sauce over the seafood and bake uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes, until the fish and shrimp are cooked through and the mussels are open. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
