Monkfish filets are very popular and expensive in Paris, the taste and texture mimic lobster and most recipies for it are applicable. Personally I prefer to lightly saute meunier but for more elegance it can you can use sauce "Cardinal".

Just made the fillets quite simple:

I'd say steam it with a sauce prepared on the side...monkfish is loose fleshed and don't stand up to heavy handling...

get it nice and flakey so you can see the little rivulets of meneuire coursing onto the plate...
