- Sprinkle the shallot into a buttered shallow baking dish just large enough to hold the fish fillets in one layer, on the shallot arrange the fillets, skin sides down, and pour the wine and the clam juice over them. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper to taste and bake them, covered with a buttered piece of wax paper, in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just cooked through. Transfer the fillets with a slotted spatula to a platter and keep them warm, covered.

Add the cream and boil the mixture until it is reduced by half. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the butter, 1 bit at a time, lifting the pan from the heat occasionally to let the mixture cool and adding each new bit of butter before the previous one has melted completely. (The sauce should not get hot enough to liquefy. It should be the consistency of thin hollandaise.) Whisk in the tarragon and salt and pepper to taste. With the slotted spatula transfer each fillet, skin side down, to a plate. Pour one fourth of the sauce over each fillet and arrange some of the grapefruit sections around each plate.

- Cook fish and vegetables:
- Preheat oven to 250°F. Pat halibut dry and season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right fish: A firm-fleshed fish like tilapia, cod, or halibut will work best for this recipe.
- Don't overcook the fish: Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and dry.
- Use fresh grapefruit juice: Fresh grapefruit juice will give the fish a brighter, more citrusy flavor. If you don't have fresh grapefruit juice, you can use bottled grapefruit juice, but be sure to dilute it with water.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the fish, don't overcrowd the pan. Otherwise, the fish will steam instead of sear and won't get that nice golden-brown crust.
- Serve immediately: Fish is best served immediately after cooking. If you need to hold it for a short time, keep it warm in a low oven or on a warming tray.
Conclusion:
This fillet of fish with grapefruit recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked in a flavorful grapefruit sauce and then topped with a crispy breadcrumb topping. The result is a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying.
