Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

4 oz Halibut fillets (8 oz each) 4 tb Clarified butter
Salt 1 Kiwi; peeled and sliced
1/4 c Flour (or as needed) - into 8 pieces

-------------------KIWI CHARDONNAY SAUCE------------------------
3 Kiwis; peeled 1/2 lb Sweet butter; cold, cut into
3 Shallots; diced - small cubes
3/4 c Chardonnay wine Salt (to taste)

Sprinkle the halibut with the salt. Lightly dust the fish with the
flour. In a large skillet place the clarified butter and heat it on
medium until it is hot. Saute the floured halibut fillets for 3 to 4
minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and just done.

On each of 4 individual serving plates place one of the sauteed
halibut fillets. Pour on the Kiwi Chardonnay Sauce. Garnish each
dish with 2 of the kiwi slices.

KIWI CHARDONNAY SAUCE: Place the kiwis in a blender and puree them.
In a small saucepan place the pureed kiwi, shallots, and Chardonnay.
Heat the ingredients on high heat and cook them for 4 to 6 minutes,
or until the liquid is reduced to 3 tablespoons. Reduce the heat to
medium.

While whisking constantly, add the butter cubes one at a time. Add
the salt and stir it in. Remove the sauce from the heat and keep it
warm until you are ready to serve it.
