Striped Sea Bass With Blood Oranges And Olives

• 6 blood oranges
• Four 6-ounce fillets (with skin) striped sea bass, skin scored Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 6 tablespoons unsalted cold butter
• 2 shallots, cut into 1/4-inch dice
• 1 ounce small pitted green olives, cut into quarters

1. 1. Squeeze 3 to 4 oranges to make 1 cup juice; set aside. Remove and discard the peel and pith of the remaining oranges. Using a sharp knife, remove the segments, and set aside in a small bowl.
2. 2. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish, skin side up; cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn fish over, reduce heat to medium, and continue to cook until fish is opaque and completely cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer fish to a serving dish; keep warm.
3. 3. While fish is cooking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots, and cook, stirring, until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add orange juice, and bring to a simmer. Cook until juice has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in the remaining 5 tablespoons cold butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Stir in orange segments and olives. Pour sauce over the fish, and serve immediately.
