Put the fish in the middle of the roasting pan and surround with the veggies. Cover loosely with foil and put it in the oven.Depending on the size of the fish it will take anywhere from 1-2 hours, you can tell it's done by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fish and seeing if the meat flakes easily. When the fish is done, remove the foil and add the haricots verts. Toss the veggies with the olive oil that's accumulated at the bottom of the pan. Spoon some oil over the fish and put it under a broiler for a few minutes to brown.Plate the veggies then use 2 forks to separate the meat from the bones running down the center of the fish. Spoon some sauce over the top and garnish with some fresh rosemary. If you went light on the salt, sprinkle some fleur de sel on top.

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are great choices 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. You could try Santi Sortesele Pinot Grigio. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.

Straw yellow hue, accompanied by a close-focused nose of pear, apricot and white flowers. The fruity palate, with top notes of stone fruit, shows ripeness and roundness well supported by an elegant acidity and savoriness, ensuring a long, lingering finish.
