This is a new favorite! The sauce was delicious and the fish tender with a little crunch on top - perfect. Thanks for a great recipe.

Lovely recipe Susan. Fine seafood dining at home. I did all of my prep work during the day so putting this dish together that evening ended up being a breeze. Thank you and your mom-in-law too!

We cook and try new recipes alot, and while this is labor intensive, it is very good. The sauce is excellent, don't overcook your fish! Sustituted items I didn't have like garlic & onions for shallots, 1/2 & 1/2 for heavy cream, skipped the bread crumbs and just used the crushed almonds.

I have never rated a recipe before but I had to this time. This was the best fish recipe that we have ever come ever had. The sauce was to die for. Followed the recipe except I used regular butter instead of unsalted. It didn't seem to matter. You have to use salt anyway. Thanks for the recipe. This will be are new favorite.

I would give this recipe 10 stars! Worth the time and is guaranteed to please. I used grouper instead of halibut and doubled the sauce. I used tarragon vinegar and fresh tarragon in place of cider vinegar and thyme. I also used pecans because I didn't have almonds. Really great recipe. Thanks!

I served this with brown rice and roasted asparagus. It was a fantastic dinner--this is an amazing recipe!! I'm a vegetarian, so I didn't eat the fish, but the beurre blanc was out of this world! My husband couldn't get enough of the fish and the sauce...he said if we weren't already married, this dinner would have gotten me a marriage proposal!!

This recipe is very good; however, it does take most of your time up just to make the souce. I will make this again just not anytime soon.

Another great fish recipe to add to my collection! I used frozen Tilapia filets (from Sam's Club) which I, of course, thawed first. They weren't very thick but they worked out just fine. The only mishap I had was that, after being sauted, the fish was so tender and wanted to fall apart. So, I gently scooped them out of the pan and put them on my baking stone. Each piece right next to the other. This made it easy to add the almond mixture. I followed the recipe for the most part. I did substitute Tilapia for the Halibut because I had Tilapia on hand. I also omitted the lemon because I don't care for lemon with my fish. And I doubled the sauce recipe but I ended up having quite a bit of sauce left over. The sauce was awesome and needs a strong flavor to balance the dish. The fish adds the crunch and the texture but there isn't much flavor without the sauce, especially if you use a very mild tasting fish like I did. My husband and 10 year old daughter loved it and would like to thank you. I insist on making them eat fish and they are continually surprised about how much they are enjoying it. I even had enough left over for my lunch the next day. I couldn't believe how fabulous it still tasted even after being reheated in the microwave. Thanks for sharing!

Definitly need an extra hand for the sauce. Served over a bed of steamed spinach/red pepper and mushroom risotta. This is a great "special occasion" meal!

Incredible! As per other's advice, I used Tilapia instead of Halibut ($6.99 per pound versus $16.99 per pound for the Halibut)and saved a bunch without sacraficing any taste. Watch out - the sauce is incredibly time consuming, but well worth it in the end. You'll probably need an extra pair of hands (like your hubby) to pull this one off. I served this over white rice from the rice cooker and balsamic asparagus. Give 30 minutes to make the sauce, counting on starting the fish with your "extra hands" after about 25 minutes. Definitely keep the sauce in a bowl surrounded by hot water - this trick really worked. DOUBLE THE SAUCE RECIPE!!!! You'll regret it if you don't - the recipe doesn't make much and you'll especially want more if you serve with rice. I made this for 5 people, doubled the sauce, and used it all. Thank you so much for this recipe!

OK, as usual I made double the sauce and followed that precisely. I didn't have any almonds though for the breading and just used the bread crumbs, butter and egg. I wasn't that impressed with the topping as it really burned in the broiler and the fish wasn't done because of it so I had to scrape off the topping to finish cooking, however the sauce was out of this world which is why I gave this 4 stars. Next time I'm going to skip the whole topping process and grill the fish using just the sauce for topping. Maybe the fact I didn't have almonds had something to do with the results, but my husband isn't a fan of nuts in his food anyhow. thanks for a great (easy) gourmet sauce!

It seems there are enough ratings on this recipe, but I had to put in my 2 cents worth. I tried this over the weekend and was most impressed with the flavor and simplicity of making it. It was even delicious left over the next day! Only thing I did different was not use the bay leaf and that was only because I didn't have any. Flavor was still supurb. This will be my new "special" dinner.

This is so delicious! And the beurre blanc recipe is worth saving for other dishes. Technique is the same as for hollandaise. This is a YUM, YUM, YUM!

This is a not a recipe for beginners, but it's also not overly complicated. My boyfriend said it was the best fish he'd ever eaten. The only problem I had was that the sauce got cold immediately when I added the lemon juice and vinegar, so I had to warm it back up. Excellent dish.
