Steps:

• In a 6-qt. stockpot, heat butter over medium heat. Add radishes; cook and stir 2 minutes. Stir in wine; increase heat to medium-high. Cook, uncovered, until radishes are crisp-tender, 8-10 minutes. Stir in tarragon, salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a saucepan and add the shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the vinegar and wine. Cook until the liquid is almost totally reduced.

Steps:

• 1. Combine the first 4 ingredients in a small heavy saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Cook until the liquid is reduced to 2 tablespoons (about 9 minutes). Remove from the heat, and strain through a fine sieve over a measuring cup, pressing the mixture to release liquid. Discard the solids. Return the liquid to the pan.
• 2. Add butter, 1 piece at a time, stirring with a whisk until the butter is incorporated. Stir in the chopped tarragon.
• 3. Sprinkle the fish evenly with salt and pepper. Heat a large grill pan (or cook on your grill.....preferred) over medium-high heat. Coat the grill with cooking spray. Add fish, and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until the desired degree of doneness. Serve with the sauce.

• Transfer steaks to a platter. Add vinegar to skillet and deglaze by boiling over high heat, scraping up brown bits. Simmer vinegar until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Remove from heat and whisk in remaining tablespoon butter until melted. Season sauce with salt and drizzle over steaks.

Steps:

• Cook shallot in 1 tablespoon butter in a small heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add wine and boil until liquid is reduced to about 1/4 cup.
