Ingredients:


4 tablespoons virgin olive oil

1 fillets monkfish filet - -- (1 lb), cut into 8 slices

2 ounces flour -- mixed with

1 teaspoon salt -- to taste, and

1 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper -- to taste

1 pound shiitake mushrooms -- hard foot removed, and cut in half

8 bunches sage leaves

8 ounces dry red wine -- (preferably chianti)

1 cup basic tomato sauce see note

2 tablespoons cold butter

1/8 cup finely-chopped fresh parsley
 

Preparation / Directions:


* Note: See the "Basic Tomato Sauce" recipe which is included in this collection. Heat virgin olive oil in a large 12- to 14-inch non-stick sauté pan. Pound each monkfish slice with a meat mallet to flatten and thin it to 1/4-inch thick. Dredge in seasoned flour and sauté in hot oil until golden brown on both sides. Remove fish and place in warm place. Add mushrooms and sage and sauté 3 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Add wine, reduce by half and add Basic Tomato Sauce and bring to boil. Replace fish in sauce, add cold butter and simmer 10 minutes. Sauce should thicken to coat fish and still be liquid. Add chopped parsley, swirl to mix and serve on warmed serving platter.
