| "Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy." | | ~ Ginette Olivesi-Lorenzias | |

Herb-Crusted Halibut Recipe
Recipe Ingredients:
4 halibut steaks - (4 oz ea) 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten 1 cup fresh breadcrumbs, seasoned with Herbes de Provence, to taste = (thyme, oregano, rosemary, and basil) Olive oil cooking spray, as needed 1 tbsp olive oil 1 shallot, finely minced 1/2 cup dry white wine 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1 cup 98% fat-free no-salt-added canned chicken broth 1 tbsp small capers, well rinsed, minced 2 tbsp finely-minced flat-leaf parsley 1 tbsp cornstarch, mixed with 1 tbsp water
Recipe Instructions:
Lightly rinse the halibut steaks and pat dry with paper towels. Place each steak between two sheets of plastic wrap and flatten to about 1/2-inch thick. Dip each steak into the beaten egg white, then into the breadcrumbs. Set aside.
Lightly coat a cast-iron skillet or a heavy nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Place over high heat and add the halibut steaks. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning once, until golden brown and fish flakes easily when prodded with a fork. Remove halibut steaks; keep warm.
Heat olive oil in a heavy saucepan; add shallot and sauté for 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the wine and lemon juice. Cook over medium-high heat until sauce is reduced by half.
Add the chicken broth, capers, parsley, and cornstarch mixture. Bring sauce to a boil. Arrange halibut steaks on heated serving plates. Nap each with some of the sauce.
