3 Drain rutabaga and return to saucepan, allowing to dry out slightly over residual heat from heating element. Add rutabaga to a blender or food processor along with butter, remaining ½ tsp (2.5 ml) salt and pepper. Pulse until desired texture is achieved. Return purée to saucepan, cover and set aside. 4 Place sablefish fillets, skin-side down, in an ovenproof baking dish or skillet, and spoon half reserved sauce over fish. Broil, watching carefully, until sauce bubbles and begins to brown. Spoon remaining half of sauce over fish. Continue to broil until fish is just cooked through, adjusting heat or rack position if sauce or fish is browning too quickly, about 5 to 8 minutes. An easy way to test doneness of fish is to insert a thin-bladed knife into thickest part of fish. It should meet with little resistance. 5 In a large frying pan, heat grapeseed oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add greens, season with a pinch of salt and sauté until warmed through but still maintains some bite, about 1 to 2 minutes. 6 To serve, divide rutabaga purée and sautéed greens among 4 dinner plates.
