By Diana Rattray, About.com Guide

Fillet of sole is poached then added to a creamy sauce and broiled to brown.

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 1/2 pounds sole fillets
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Preparation:

In a large skillet over medium heat, put parsley, green onions, salt, pepper, white wine and water; bring to a boil. Add fish and poach for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove fish to a lightly buttered shallow baking dish. Continue cooking water and wine mixture until liquid has reduced to about 1 cup.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan melt 2 tablespoons of butter; stir in the flour, stirring until a smooth paste is formed. Gradually add the reduced liquid and heavy cream, stirring over low heat. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add remaining butter; pour over fish. Place fish under broiler until nicely browned.
Serves 6.
