Halibut Braised In Red Wine

1. 1

   Put 3 tablespoons butter in a 10-or 12-inch skillet over medium heat.

2. 2

   When the butter melts, add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the wine and bay leaves; increase heat to high, and cook until the mixture is reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 20 minutes.

4. 4

   Add the stock and reduce to about 1 cup, about 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Add the halibut along with some salt and pepper, turn the heat to low, and cover.

6. 6

   Cook for about 10 minutes or until the halibut is tender (a thin-blade knife will pass through it with little resistance).

7. 7

   Transfer the halibut to a warm plate and stir in the remaining butter, cooking and stirring until the sauce is smooth.

8. 8

   Taste and adjust seasoning; pour the sauce over and around the fish, garnish and serve.
