Ingredients

4 halibut fillets (6 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons butter, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup fat-free milk
1/2 cup crabmeat, drained, flaked and cartilage removed
1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

Place each fillet in an individual broiler-proof serving dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Melt 2 teaspoons butter; drizzle over fillets. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan coated with cooking spray, melt remaining butter. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually stir in the broth and milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in crab. Remove from the heat; stir in cheese until melted. Pour over halibut. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes or until lightly browned.
