Fish Fillets In Red Wine Sauce Filets De Poisson Au Vin Rouge Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in casserole and add fish bones, onion and carrots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes.
• Add wine, water, bay leaf, parsley and thyme. Bring to boil and let simmer, uncovered, about 40 minutes. Strain sauce through fine sieve, pushing solids with wooden spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard solids.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Generously season the steaks with salt and pepper and drizzle with the 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Grill to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board. Tent with foil and let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Add the garlic and oregano and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in the wine. Simmer until the sauce reduces by half, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat. Strain the sauce into a small bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids in the strainer and return the sauce to the saucepan and bring back to a slow simmer. Cut the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into small 1/2-inch chunks and whisk in the sauce a little at a time. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Place filets on each of 6 dinner plates. Drizzle the sauce over the filets and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Cook fish stock down until reduced by half. Set aside.
• Trim off bottom end of each scallion and pull off and discard any tough or blemished outer leaves. Cut each scallion into 6-inch lengths. Arrange in flat baking dish and add water to barely cover, 2 tablespoons of the butter, salt and pepper. Bring to boil and let cook about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Set aside.
• Select heatproof skillet or baking dish large enough to hold fish fillets in one layer. Rub bottom with one tablespoon of butter and sprinkle with shallots. Arrange fillets over shallots and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Pour wine and water over fillets. Dot with 3 tablespoons butter. Bring to boil on top of stove. Place in oven and bake 2 1/2 to 5 minutes, depending on thickness of fillets. Cook only until fish loses raw look throughout.
• Transfer fillets, 2 at a time, to 4 individual heated serving plates.
• Pour cooking liquid into saucepan. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and fish stock with red wine. Cook combined sauces down to one cup. Put this through sieve and press to extract as much liquid as possible. There should be about 3/4 cup. Reheat gently.
• Garnish each serving with 6 individual drained scallions. Spoon sauce around fish but not on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper to taste.
• Rub surface of flat, metal, heat-proof baking sheet with butter. Arrange fillets flat on surface with comfortable space between.
• Hold palm of hand under cold water and when generously wet pat each fillet to coat lightly with water.
• Place baking sheet in oven. If gas oven is used, place it on floor; if electric oven with heating element exposed is used, place sheet on bottom rack. Close door and bake 3 minutes or just until fish loses raw look. Do not overcook or fish will become dry. Serve on individual plates with seafood sauce spooned over.
