Directions

Recipe by: TVFN Heat virgin olive oil in a large 12-inch to 14-inch non-stick saute pan.

Pound each monkfish slice with a meat mallet to flatten and thin it to ¼-inch thick. Dredge in seasoned flour and saute in hot oil until golden brown on both sides. Remove fish and place in warm place.

Add mushrooms and sage and saute 3 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Add wine, reduce by half and add tomato sauce and bring to boil.

Replace fish in sauce, add cold butter and simmer 10 minutes. Sauce should thicken to coat fish and still be liquid. Add chopped parsley, swirl to mix and serve on warmed serving platter.
