Method

For the Sauce:

1. Soak cashews in boiling water for 2 hours. Drain and rinse well with cold water. Let drain thoroughly.
2. Add cashews and the rest of the ingredients to a high speed blender. Blend on high speed until it looks smooth and creamy. Depending on what type of blender you have, you may need to scrape down the sides a few times.

For the Fish:

1. Rinse sea bass fillets with cold water and pat dry very well. Set to rest on a cutting board.
2. Combine the rest of the fish ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Using a brush or your hands, cover the filets evenly with the marinade.
3. Heat a large frying pan on medium heat for 1 minute. Add oil and cook both filets for about 3 minutes on the first side and 2 minutes after flipping them over. You will notice they are flaky when touched with a fork. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.

For the Bowls: Layer some leafy greens or lettuce leaves in a bowl with cooked cauliflower rice. Top off with fish filets, plenty of sauce, and desired toppings. Serve right away.

NOTES: Soak cashews in boiling water for 2 hours. Drain and rinse well with cold water. Let drain thoroughly.
