A refined Loire-style butter sauce with shallots and white wine turns firm halibut into a quietly aristocratic fish course.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 25 min

Ingredients

  • Halibut fillets – 4
  • Shallots – 2
  • Dry white wine – 120 ml
  • White wine vinegar – 1 tbsp
  • Cold butter – 150 g
  • Lemon juice – 1 tsp
  • Chives – 1 tbsp
  • Salt – to taste
  • White pepper – to taste

Method

Poach or steam the halibut until just flaky. Reduce the shallots with wine and vinegar, then whisk in butter to make a classic beurre nantais. Add lemon, spoon over the fish and scatter with chives.
