You are going to love this pan seared red snapper with creamy creole sauce recipe. Pat the fish dry. Season on both sides. Get your pan heated. Then I’m going to add a little bit of oil. Once that’s heated, a little knob of butter. Place the fish. And we’re just going to let it form a crust on the bottom. Then gently flip another, say, 2 minutes. Then we’re going to transfer to a platter. You just want to make sure you don’t overcook the fish. Then in the same pan to make the creamy creole sauce, add in another little knob of butter, some diced bell peppers, and we’re going to let these go for about 2 to 3 minutes to soften before adding in minced celery, onions, and garlic with some paprika and creole seasoning. Another minute or two, pour in chicken stock, our heavy cream. And we’re just going to let this simmer to thicken. It’s only going to take a few minutes. Once the creole sauce is thickened, we’re going to remove it from the heat. Add in some fresh lemon juice, fresh parsley, some diced tomatoes, then spoon that creamy creole sauce on top of that pan seared red snapper. But I mean, doesn’t that look incredible? The fish was so tender and flaky. You’ve got to try this red snapper
