| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Cut the filets in half length-wise. Roll each piece into a pinwheel and fasten with a toothpick. Place in the bottom of a large covered casserole.
|
2. Combine 2 tablespoons butter, salt, pepper, onion, cognac, and wine. Pour over the fish.
|
3. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven until the fish is done and has lost the translucent look, even in the center. (This will take about 5 minutes or so.)
|
4. Transfer the fish to a warm serving tray. Put a shrimp in the center of each pinwheel. Keep fish warm.
|
5. Return the casserole, uncovered, to the microwave oven and continue cooking to reduce the liquid to about 1/3 of its original amount.
|
6. Beat the egg yolk with the cream and stir in the pan juices. Stir in the remaining butter. Pour into the casserole and reheat to just short of a boil.
|
7. Pour over the fish. Heat the asparagus spears. Arrange the asparagus and remaining shrimp decoratively around the fish and serve.
