I also substituted the Sea Bass for salmon for ethical purposes, and it came out superbly! I used light cream instead of heavy, and added coconut milk and fresh corn to the sauce along with a slew of spices. The end result was divine. I may try to make the sauce into a seafood bisque next!

I made this for a large family gathering. At the time I could not find a ripe mango...anywhere...so I used jarred mango. The sauce was not quite as colorful but it was absolutely devine!!! I bought extra sea bass and was worried that there wouldn't be enough and there wasn't a crumb left!

The only change I made was 2 tablespoons of sweet Asian chili sauce. This kicked up the taste a little without overpowering it.

The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is that I don't think the macadamia nut crust was necessary. It doesn't crisp up well and is completely masked by the DELICIOUS mango cream sauce. I'm thinking you could use this base to make any type of creamy fruit sauce. We used mahi mahi since sea bass wasn't available and I think any white fish would be delicious with this sauce, as would chicken. Yum!

This recipe is ridiculously amazing! FYI - after years of using this website, this recipe motivated me to get off my butt to register for a profile so that I could post a review. Its literally that good. I prepared 2 for each person and even though I meant to eat both, I forced myself to save one just so that I could enjoy this again tomorrow! WOW. I followed it pretty closely (little more cream, little more lemon, little more macadamia), but one extra step I added was to use old bay seasoning prior to the oven step. I would think this work excellent with tilapia as well, since its a similar mild white flesh fish, more economical as well. Deanna - who posted this recipe - thank you!!

This was the first time I've had chilean sea bass and I was excited to try this recipe, but was left completely disappointed (and broke)! I followed the recipe almost exactly, however it came out flavorless and greasy (possibly due to the oils in the crust) I certainly loved the texture of the fish itself, but the crust and creamy sauce overwhelmed the dish and made it shockingly unhealthy. For those of you who will insist on trying this recipe, please due so first with a much less expensive cut of fish to see if you like it. And do not put vanilla extract in the mango sauce as others have suggested. The extract made it taste like a dessert sauce (although it tasted delicious on the scoop of vanilla ice cream I had afterward.) For a fish like this less is definately more. Do yourself a favor and save the time and money for something else. Prepare with a bit of olive oil, white wine, salt, pepper, lemon juice and parsley. It will cost less and taste much better

I cooked this for my Husband's birthday and he loved it. The mango sauce was amazing and it went perfectly with the Sea Bass. If you're looking for a dish that is relatively easy to make and impressive....this is it!

Loved the sauce. I also ran the sauce through my food processor to make it smooth. The mistake I made was leaving everything in the skillet when I put it in the oven. Should have changed pans. Was to greasy and Sea Bass is a very expensive fish so I will change pans the next time as the recipe says.

You get gourmet flavor with a reasonable amount of effort with this recipe. Mine was delicious, and I think it would work well with many different varieties of fish. I might puree the mango cream sauce next time, as I found it difficult to dice the mango into anything that looked attractive - but the flavor was fabulous. Picky younger daughter liked the fish without the sauce. An impressive dish!

I made the Mango sauce first (made it creamy), when I tasted it... I didnt like the taste... I almost wanted to doctor it up, but I resisted and I am VERY glad I did. I pulsed the nut mixture as per the suggestions so it was crumbly. Everything went together so well, next time I will add a pinch more red pepper flakes. This was a surperb dish, I was very impressed, and it was easy!

This was excellent! I followed the advice of a few others. For the sauce I skipped the lemon altogether. I pureed Dole mango (no ripe ones in the store), heated it up, added a splash of coconut rum and about a tablespoon of brown sugar, then the heavy cream and cooked until thick. The macadamia crust was awesome. I spiced it up a little more with the red pepper but the sweetness of the mango sauce was a perfect contrast!

Excellent, I follwed recipe to the "T" and was amazed. Seabass is very expensive but worth it. I will try the macadamia crust on other fish. My husband and 9yr old loved it. Thanks for sharing!!

Couldn't even get the mango cream sauce to come out. I made it twice, and both times it curdled - the first time due to the heat? the second time due to the lemon juice? I really couldn't figure out how the heat and lemon wouldn't curdle the cream.

Sorry to be the odd one but we just didn't care for this at all. The cream sauce was too heavy for our liking. However, our one year old ate it pretty well hence, 2 stars.

This is absolutely a tasty dish! I forgot to pick up macadamia nuts, so I used almonds as a replacement. It was great, although I'd still like to try the macadamia's next time I make this. The mango cream sauce was the perfect addition!
