Seabass & Lobster Tails

One late afternoon when both the man and I had a breather after running errands, and had no dinner plans with anyone, we decided to eat in. Needed ingredients though. Conveniently we were near a mall that had a supermarket, as well as an outlet of Song Fish. Perfect. These two shops settled ingredients for an easy dinner at home. Found a fresh-enough sea bass to oven grill, and two frozen lobster tails to go with pasta.

The ingredients didn't need to be marinated very much. They thawed out in the car on the way back, and continued sitting on ice while we prepped onions, garlic and such. When the fish went into the oven, we started on the pasta sauce and boiled up the lobster tails. 90 minutes later, dinner was ready.

The seabass was wrapped in aluminum foil, and came out just right from the oven. It baked nicely in its own juices, olive oil, lemon, salt and pepper. The man took care of tonight's essential carbs—spaghetti in a spicy tomato sauce. The lobster tails were boiled, peeled out, and the bits of flesh were seared and given a final toss with the pasta. The man has indeed nailed the art of cooking pasta at home. Nicely al dente, and full of flavors. There, dinner happily settled.
