I nervously forked a small piece of sea bass, squash, feta and pine nuts into my mouth- after all I had just concocted this recipe - and like always I'm anxious to try it. After a small portion of this incredibly rich and buttery fish, I was insanely full. I was happily surprised at how delicious it turned out; I had completely underestimated the warm and dramatic blend of flavors. The overwhelming success of this dish made me glad I had taken to the time to experiment.

2 sea bass steaks
1 tbs dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tsp turmeric

2 tbs kosher salt
1 tsp coarse black pepper
3 tbs pine nuts
3 tbs feta cheese

Take the squash out of the oven and sprinkle the pine nuts and feta cheese. return tray to the oven for 6 minutes. remove from oven and set aside.
2. In a bowl whisk the mustard, tumeric, cayenne pepper, salt, white wine, garlic, and grape seed oil. Brush both sides of the sea bass generously with sauce.
