This recipe covers 21% of your daily requirements of vitamins and minerals. If you have leek, marjoram, grouper fillets, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the salt you could follow this main course with the Apple Turnovers Recipe as a dessert. It works well as a pretty expensive main course. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 45 minutes.
Instructions
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add leek; saut 4 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper.
Remove the mixture from pan, and set aside.
Add endive to pan. Saut 9 minutes; stir occasionally.
Add garlic, and cook 1 minute.
Remove from heat; stir in the leek mixture. Spoon into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Combine wine, clam juice, and 2 tablespoons mustard in skillet; cook over medium-high heat until reduced to 2/3 cup (about 5 minutes).
Remove from heat; stir in marjoram.
Spread 2 tablespoons of mustard evenly over both sides of fillets. Arrange the fillets on top of vegetables, and pour wine mixture over the fillets. Cover and bake at 400 for 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Fish. 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 Zind-Humbrecht Clos Windsbuhl Vendange Tardive Pinot Gris with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 99 dollars per bottle.
