Ingredients
- 1 pound red potatoes

- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 4 6-ounce pieces halibut
- 2 1/2 cups dry white wine

- Add the green beans and cook 5 minutes more, until just tender. Drain and set aside.
- In the same pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the chives, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ⅛ teaspoon pepper. Quarter the potatoes and return them to the pot with the green beans. Stir gently to combine.
- Season the fish with ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon pepper and place in a large skillet. Pour in enough wine to reach halfway up the sides of the fish.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, covered, until the fish is opaque.
- Serve with the beans and potatoes. Spoon any extra chive butter on top of the fish.

FRESH PICK
Turnips
Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it
is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
