My first beurre blanc attempt and I was VERY pleased with the result. The instructions are right on and I didn't screw up the consistency! I did have to substitute white wine for ginger ale for a family member who cannot have alcohol for health reasons. I researched it and ginger ale is a good sub for white wine if you can't find the alcohol free at the stores. The breading around the halibut was awesome and my family was really impressed with how it turned out. I don't even care for fish but I gobbled this dish up!!

I haven't yet eaten this recipe exactly as it's written, as I wanted something healthier and made it without any butter, but even the healthier version tasted great - it was rich and you felt like you were eating something decadent even though it was healthy. I substituted a little olive oil in place of the butter, and instead of heavy cream I used fat free half and half. I used a combination of almonds and corn flakes in place of the bread crumbs. I liked the way the flavor of the sauce blended with that of the fish. The crunchy coating on top of the fish was also delicious.

Yum yum yum! The sauce was amazing! Doubled the sauce recipe like others syggested but halved the butter. I could have eaten that alone. Topped with chopped Macadamia nuts instead of almonds. Definitely worth the time.

Turned out a little dry and flavor was odd. Will not be making again.

My enitre family loves this recipe, the sauce is really delicous, I have made it both with the sieve and without, it works fine both ways, the easiest way to make the sauce is to measure every thing out in advance and set in small pinch bowls.

This is possibly the best recipe I've ever made. The sauce is amazing. If you are gonna spend your hard earned dollars on an expensive fish like halibut, this dish makes it worth it. Have it with a nice white wine and you are all set. Enjoy!

This is my most favorite recipes of allrecipes.com. There are fewer votes on this recipe because it does take some timing and prep work but I assure you well worth it.
