Halibut with Mixed Beans and Lemon-Butter Sauce
"You've got to love pan-roasted halibut," says Dressler's co-chef Polo Dobkin. "It's beautifully firm and it gets so nicely golden when you sear it."

Directions
Make Ahead
The recipe can be prepared through Step 3 one day ahead. Refrigerate the vegetables; let return to room temperature before proceeding.
Suggested Pairing
The light sauce on this halibut would be overwhelmed by a big Chardonnay from a warm wine region. Instead, turn to a lively Chardonnay from a cool climate, like Oregon's Columbia Valley.
