   Rinse fish with cold water; pat dry with paper towels.

   boil; reduce heat.  Add fish to liquid; cover and
   simmer for 4-5 minutes, or until fish flakes easily

   set aside.  In small saucepan, over medium heat, melt
   butter.  Blend in flour. Gradually add cream and
   reduced liquid.  Continue cooking, stirring
   constantly, until mixture thickens.  Mix in sherry,
   lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.
   Stir in grapes and mushrooms. Pour hot sauce over
   fish; sprinkle with paprika.  Place under preheated
   broiler 3-4 inches from source of heat for 1-2
   minutes, or until sauce is bubbly and delicately
   browned.
