INSTRUCTIONS
(from Patrice Boely )
Directions: Rinse the halibut under cool water and them dry with paper
towels. In a large non aluminum saucepan, bring the Champagne to a boil.
Add the scallops and cook for 3 minutes. Remove the scallops from the
liquid with a slotted spoon and set aside. Boil the cooking liquid for
about 15 minutes or until reduced to about 3 T. Whisk in the creme fraiche,
then remove from heat and whisk in the butter. Set aside. Preheat the
broiler or charcoal grill. Sprinkle salt and cayenne pepper on both sides
of the fish fillets and brush with the peanut oil. Broil for 4 minutes on
each side. Remove and keep warm. Reheat the sauce gently and season to
taste with salt and pepper. To serve: Ladle sauce onto 4 plates. Place the
grilled fish in the center, dividing it evenly. Arrange the scallops in a
large circle around fish. Top the fish with a dab of salmon roe. Serves 4.
