Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 cup chopped scallions
1 large ripe tomato, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup chardonnay (recommended: Wolffer Estate Selection Chardonnay)
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chardonnay (recommended: Wolffer Estate Selection Chardonnay)
1/4 cup verjus* (recommended: Wolffer Verjus)
1 (4 to 5-pound) striped bass fillet, cut into 6 equal pieces
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Make cream sauce: Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add scallion and saute until tender. Add tomato and basil. Add chardonnay and cook until liquid is reduced by half. Add heavy cream, reduce the heat, and simmer until the desired thickness is reached. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • After you have started the sauce, bake the fillet: place butter, chardonnay, and verjus in a baking pan. Season fish with salt and pepper and place in pan. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until fish is cooked through; the fish should be opaque throughout and a knife should slide in easily.
  • Place fillets on a serving plate and spoon over the sauce. Serve with a fresh crusty baguette and a crisp green salad.

I agree with DinnerDilemma. This recipe could definitely use more seasoning. I added some garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika and it was much better.

I've made this recipe several times and I always add a bit of lemon zest to the sauce. It gives it a nice citrusy flavor.
