1 1/2 pounds sea bass fillets
salt and ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped leek, white part only
1/2 cup thinly sliced oyster mushrooms
1 1/2 cups half and half cream
2 avocado , mashed

Tex Mex Sauces
Cut fish into 4 or 6 portions. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook fish 3 to 5 minutes
per side until done; cook in 2 batches, if necessary, to prevent crowding in
skillet. Remove fish to a serving platter and cover to keep warm.
3. Add leeks and mushrooms to same skillet; sauté 3 to 5 minutes or until
tender. Stir in cream and cook 2 to 3 minutes to thicken and reduce slightly,
stirring constantly. Add mashed avocado and whisk until smooth. Season to taste
with salt and pepper.
4. Spoon sauce over fish; top with crabmeat and serve

foot on the necks of monarchs.
