Heat virgin olive oil in a large 12- to 14-inch non-stick saute pan.

Pound each monkfish slice with a meat mallet to flatten and thin it to 1/4-inch thick. Dredge in seasoned flour and saute in hot oil until golden brown on both sides. Remove fish and place in warm place.

Add mushrooms and sage and saute 3 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Add wine, reduce by half and add Basic Tomato Sauce and bring to boil.
