Instructions:👩🍳🥣
1️⃣ Cook the Snapper:
Season the red snapper fillets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2️⃣ Sauté the Veggies:
In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté chopped onion and bell pepper until soft. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
3️⃣ Make the Creamy Sauce:
Stir in Creole seasoning, paprika, and cayenne (optional for extra spice). Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, bringing it all to a simmer. Cook until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.
4️⃣ Combine:
Return the snapper fillets to the skillet and spoon the creamy sauce over the top. Let the flavors meld together for an additional 2-3 minutes.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy:
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately! Pair with rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up that luscious sauce. 😍
Notes:
Adjust the cayenne pepper to your heat preference, or omit it if you prefer a milder dish. Perfect for a family dinner or special occasion!
