Instructions

Remove from pan and set aside.
Add mushrooms, scallions, pepper, and paprika and cook over low heat.
Add flour and make a roux.
Whisk in stock by thirds and bring to a simmer.
Whisk in sour cream and check seasoning.
Place fish back into the pan, cover, and roast in the oven 30 minutes or until fish is flaky.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Halibut works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Mark West Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
