Categories     dinner, main course

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound slender asparagus
3 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 tablespoons finely minced shallots
4 fillets of St. Pierre (John Dory), sea bass or gray sole; total weight about 1 pound
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
1/2 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon water or fish stock
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Snap off the ends of the asparagus where they break naturally, then steam them about 2 minutes. Set aside, covered or wrapped in foil to keep them warm.
  • In a skillet large enough to hold the fish in a single layer, heat 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Before the foam subsides, add shallots. Saute until shallots become translucent.
  • Dry fish fillets on a paper towel, add them to skillet and cook over high heat about 1 1/2 minutes on each side, until they are barely cooked through. Do not overcook. Remove fish to a platter and cover to keep warm.
  • Add vinegar and honey to skillet and simmer 3 to 4 minutes, until liquid has reduced somewhat. Whisk in remaining butter and add water or stock and lemon juice. Cook briefly until sauce is syrupy.
  • Transfer fish to each of four plates, spoon about a tablespoon of sauce over each fillet and garnish with a few asparagus spears.

I'm going to try making this recipe with different types of fish. I think it would be great with salmon or trout.

I added a few chopped walnuts to the honey-vinegar glaze for a bit of crunch. It was a nice touch.

I didn't have any honey on hand, so I used maple syrup instead. It worked out great!

The fish was a bit overcooked. I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less honey or adding some lemon juice to balance out the flavor.
