BEURRE NANTAIS (HERB BUTTER SAUCE)

Steps:

• Combine shallots, vinegar, quarter teaspoon pepper and water in 4-cup saucepan. Bring to boil and simmer until liquid is reduced by about half. If mixture becomes too dry, add a little more water.
• Cut butter into inch cubes. Add about a third to sauce, stirring vigorously, and cook over low heat. Do not let this sauce boil, or it will curdle. Continue adding butter, about a third at a time. Continue stirring until butter is melted. Beat constantly until butter sauce is piping hot.
• Remove from heat, and stir in the tarragon, chervil, parsley and lime or lemon juice, beating. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

RED SNAPPER FRANçAISE WITH BUTTER AND LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Season the fish with salt and pepper. Put the 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish. Put the egg substitute in another shallow dish. Dredge the fillets in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then coat the fillets in the egg substitute and let them sit in the substitute until ready to add to the pan.
• Heat 2 large nonstick sauté pans over medium heat. When the pans are hot, spray them with cooking spray and add 2 fillets to each pan. Cook until the fillets are golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a serving platter, and tent it with foil to keep them warm.
• In one of the sauté pans, melt the butter over high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons flour into the butter. Add the lemon juice and chicken broth, and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the parsley, and season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Spoon the sauce over the fish, and serve.

ROUGET AND SHRIMP WITH LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Peel shrimp and, if desired, devein. With tweezers remove any bones from fish fillets.
• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Finely chop shallots. Cut butter into tablespoons. In a small saucepan boil wine, broth, lemon juice, and shallots until liquid is reduced by about half. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil and simmer until emulsified, about 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat and whisk in butter 1 piece at a time, adding each new piece before previous one is incorporated. Keep sauce warm, covered. (It should not get hot enough to separate.)
• Halve zucchini lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. In a small saucepan of boiling salted water cook zucchini until just tender, about 1 minute, and drain in a sieve. In a bowl toss zucchini with 1 tablespoon sauce and keep warm, covered.
• Pat fish fillets dry and season with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet heat 2 tablespoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and in batches sear fish, skin sides down, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn fish over and cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more for rouget and about 4 minutes more for snapper. (Add more oil if necessary between batches.) Transfer fish as cooked to a shallow baking pan and keep warm, covered, in middle of oven.
• Wipe skillet clean and heat 2 tablespoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Sauté shrimp, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes.
• Mound mash in center of each of 6 plates and top with fish. Arrange shrimp and zucchini evenly around mash and drizzle sauce over all.
