Fish Veronique
Here's a trick to treat the taste buds: Remove the fat from the chicken broth and add low-fat milk to get a healthy sauce that tastes rich and looks creamy.
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 lb white fish (such as cod, sole, or turbot)
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup chicken stock or broth, skim fat from top
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp soft margarine
2 tbsp flour
3/4 cup low-fat or skim milk
1/2 cup seedless grapes
nonstick cooking spray, as needed
1. Spray 10- by 6-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Place fish in pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Mix wine, stock, and lemon juice in small bowl and pour over fish.
3. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.
4. Melt margarine in small saucepan. Remove from heat and blend in flour. Gradually add milk and cook over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened.
5. Remove fish from oven, and pour liquid from baking dish into "cream" sauce, stirring until blended. Pour sauce over fish and sprinkle with grapes.
6. Broil about 4 inches from heat for 5 minutes or until sauce starts to brown.
