-
- Preheat the oven to 300 F. Carefully cut the out core of each
- tomato, removing a small, narrow plug and leav0 36the tomato intact.
- Blanch the tomatoes in boil0 36water for a few seconds; drain under
- cold water and slip off their skins. Cut a lid from the smooth bottom
- of each tomato (opposite the core) and set aside. With a melon scoop
- or spoon, carefully hollow out the pulp and seeds from the tomatoes,
- leav0 36a neat shell. Place the tomatoes and their lids in a small
- buttered bak0 36dish, sprinkle with salt and pepper, set aside.
-
- In a small skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and saute the
- sliced onions over medium heat until softened but not browned, 5 to 7
- minutes. Spoon cooked onions into the hollowed tomatoes, dividing
- evenly.
-
- On a work surface, gently flatten the sole fillets, tapping them
- with the side of a wide knife blade. Carefully roll up each fillet,
- beginn0 36with the small (tail) end and with the smooth, shiny skinned
- surface on the inside. Lightly butter a heat-proof shallow bak0 36dish
- in which the fillets will fit compactly. Scatter shallot into the
- dish, then arrange rolled fish fillets over shallot. Salt and pepper
- the fish lightly and pour wine over all. Cover the dish with buttered
- parchment or waxed paper, buttered side down. Place the pan over
- medium heat and br0 36almost to a boil. Place the pan of fish and the
- pan of tomatoes in the oven. Bake until fillets are just cooked
- through, 6 to 8 minutes.
-
- DO NOT OVERCOOK.
-
- Remove the pans from the oven. With a slotted spatula, lift each
- fillet, drain0 36all of the liquid back into the pan, and place each
- fillet upright in a tomato. Place the pan of fish-cook0 36liquid over
- high heat and boil the liquid until it's reduced to a few tablespoons
- of syrupy liquid. Reduce the heat to very low. Whisk in the
- remain0 3612 tablespoons of butter, 1 or 2 pieces at a time, adding
- more only when the previous addition has become creamy and smooth.
- Strain this sauce into a small bowl, stir in the parsley and chives
- and season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
- Place each stuffed tomato on a warm serving plate. Spoon some of
- the sauce over each fillet and around each tomato. Gently replace the
- lids and serve immediately.
