🌟 Savor the Flavors of the South: Red Snapper with Creamy Creole Sauce! 🐟🍴 🌟

📋 Ingredients:

• 4 red snapper fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
• 1/4 cup finely chopped bell peppers
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

🥣 Directions:

1. Prep the Fish: Season the red snapper fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Cook the Fish: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add onions, bell peppers, and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until vegetables are tender.
4. Prepare the Sauce: Add diced tomatoes, heavy cream, chicken broth, Creole seasoning, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir well and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
5. Combine and Serve: Return the red snapper fillets to the skillet, spooning the creamy Creole sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the fish is heated through.
6. Garnish and Enjoy: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving.
