Petrale Sole With Meyer Lemon Beurre Blanc image

From San Francisco Chronicle & SFGate.com. "Beurre Blanc is an elegant sauce for fish & adding the sweet juice of Meyer lemons makes a fine finish for Petrale sole, onf our prized local fish & one of my personal favorites. However, other delicate fish could be treated to the sauce as well or even firm fleshed fish like halibut."
