Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 skinless, boneless monkfish fillets, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard
1/4 cup finely chopped onions
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/2 pound small mushrooms
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • Select a baking dish large enough to hold the monkfish fillets in one layer without crowding. Pour olive oil over the bottom. Turn the fillets in the oil to coat well all over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush the fillets with mustard. Scatter onions and garlic around the fillets.
  • Place the baking dish on top of the stove and heat until the oil begins to sizzle. Add the white wine and scatter the mushrooms around the fillets. Bring the wine just to a simmer.
  • Place the baking dish in the oven and bake 15 minutes. Baste the fillets and return to the oven. Continue baking about 5 minutes. Swirl the butter in the sauce. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     dinner, sauces and gravies, appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups fine Barolo wine
3 shallots, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tablespoon heavy cream
8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/8 pound dry porcini mushrooms, rehydrated in water for 20 minutes
2 pounds monkfish fillets
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Put the wine, shallots and thyme in a saucepan over high heat and boil until less than 1/2 cup remains, from 20 to 30 minutes. Add the heavy cream and stir. Strain the sauce and set it aside.
  • Over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a pan. Before the butter begins to brown, add the mushrooms. Cook for 4 minutes, turn each mushroom and cook 3 more minutes. Remove and drain them on paper towels.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Season one side of the monkfish fillets lightly with salt and pepper. When the butter begins to foam, immediately place the fish, seasoned side down, in the pan.
  • Lightly season the top side of the fillets and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on each fillet's thickness. Turn and cook until thoroughly warmed, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the fish, pat dry and arrange on 6 plates.
  • Warm the wine sauce until nearly boiling. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Season, add the mushrooms and surround each fillet with the sauce.

Cod with Herbed White-Wine Lemon Sauce image

This recipe can be made using any fresh mild-flavored white fish, such as cod, sole, sea bass, or flounder.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 cup dry white wine
2 lemons, 1 juiced and 1 sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup capers, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup loosely packed mixed fresh herbs, such as parsley, tarragon, chervil, dill, and thyme, roughly chopped
4 (about 6 ounces each) codfish fillets

Steps:

  • Combine shallot, wine, and lemon juice in a small skillet; set over high heat. Bring to a boil; simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in butter, capers, 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of pepper, and 3/4 of the herbs. Set aside; keep warm.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 3 tablespoons sauce. Season both sides of fillets with remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Arrange fillets and lemon slices in skillet; sprinkle with some herbs. Cook until fillets are golden, about 4 minutes. Turn, sprinkle with remaining herbs, and cook until fish is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Serve with lemon slices and remaining sauce.

Tips:

  • For a richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • If you don't have white wine, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth.
  • Dijon mustard adds a nice tang to the sauce. If you don't like Dijon mustard, you can use another type of mustard, such as yellow mustard or brown mustard.
  • Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or tarragon, can add a nice flavor to the sauce.
  • If you're using frozen fish fillets, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the fish. It should be cooked through, but still flaky and tender.

Conclusion:

Sautéed monkfish or cod fillets in a white wine Dijon mustard cream sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is easy to make. The fish is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with white wine, Dijon mustard, and cream. This dish is perfect for a special occasion dinner or a weeknight meal. Serve it with rice, pasta, or vegetables.
