Recipe - Roasted Porgy With Peas

1 Porgy or sea bass, 3 pound
2 pound Fresh peas
One fourth cup Extra virgin olive oil
6 Cloves garlic, thinly cut or sliced up
One half cup Dry white wine
4 Scallions, thinly cut or sliced up
One fourth cup Fresh mint leaves

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Cut, clean and scale fish and season inside and out. Shell peas and set
aside. In a saute pan large enough to hold the fish, heat olive oil until
smoking. Place fish in pan and shake vigorously. Saute 2 or 3 minutes,
until fish is starting to crisp on first side, and then flip it over. Add
garlic and place in oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish is just cooked
through. Remove and place pan on burner and remove fish to service platter.
Add peas, scallions and white wine and saute 1 minute. Add mint leaves and
immediately pour over fish. Serve with some grilled yellow squash and
portion tableside.

Yield: 4 servings
