ingredients

2 shallots, minced
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 ripe tomatoes, chopped
2 teaspoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon saffron threads, crumbled
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 pounds monkfish fillets, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper, to taste

directions

Cook the shallots in 2 tbsp butter in frying pan. Add tomatoes, parsley, saffron threads and white wine. Simmer for 1 minute. Add the monkfish and cook 6 to 7 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon and keep warm.

Add cream to the pan and bring to a boil. Allow to thicken slightly, then remove from the heat and stir in the remaining butter, cut in pieces. Season with salt and pepper and pour the sauce over the fish. Serve with white rice.

This delicious sauce can also be served over halibut or over broiled chicken breasts or veal. It has a bright color and delicious taste.

  1. Rachel uk REVIEW:

    I made this twice now Amazing

  2. BERNIE REVIEW:

    THIS RECIPE WAS OVER THE TOP. I USED FAT FREE HALF AND HALF AND IT STILL CAME OUT THICK AND TASTED VERY RICH. I HAVE A HARD TIME FINDING MONKFISH (THEY HAVE IT AT WHOLE FOODS) BUT AFTER TASTING IT I'M SURE IT WOULD BE FABULOUS WITH SHRIMP AND/OR SCALLOPS ALSO.
