Steps
- 1Prepare Bronze Seasoning for Fish (Makes 1½ Cups).
- 2In small bowl, mix all spices until thoroughly combined. Store excess bronze seasoning in airtight jar.
- 3Preheat oven to 425°F.
- 4Remove skin from sablefish and pat dry with a paper towel.
- 5Coat broiler pan with oil or butter. Place the fillets on broiler pan.
- 6Season liberally with bronze seasoning.
- 7Bake sablefish in the preheated oven on 425°F for 15-18 minutes, or until it is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
- 8To test for doneness, insert a food thermometer into the thickest part of the fish. The internal temperature of the fish should be at least 145°F (63°C). Continue baking it in 3-minute increments until it reaches the proper temperature.
- 9Keep salted butter cold in refrigerator until you are ready to make the orange sauce. Cut 4 tablespoon pieces of butter and then cut each tablespoon piece into 4 cubes. You should have a total of 16 cubes.
- 10Put butter in refrigerator until you are ready to add to sauce.
- 11In small saucepan, on medium heat, add shallots and white wine. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until wine is reduced to 1-2 tablespoons.
- 12While whisking mixture continuously, add 1 tablespoon heavy cream. Continue to whisk throughout entire process.
- 13Continue whisking and add 3 tablespoons orange juice concentrate.
- 14Continue whisking and add two cubes of butter at a time. Once cubes of butter are almost melted add the next 2 cubes.
- 15If mixture is simmering too vigorously, drop heat to medium-low.
- 16Repeat this process until all cubes, except last 4 (1 tablespoon) are melted and keep mixing.
- 17Remove from heat and continue whisking. Add the last 4 cubes of butter and continue whisking until fully incorporated (keep whisking for about 1-2 more minutes to be sure that the mixture is stabilized and does not separate).
- 18Using mesh strainer, strain orange beurre blanc sauce to remove shallots using spatula to gently push mixture through strainer.
- 19Add fresh orange zest and mix to incorporate.
- 20Place sablefish on serving plate. Drizzle with orange beurre blanc sauce. Enjoy!
