Red Snapper In Creamy Bechamel Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the crepe batter: Whisk together the egg and cream in a small bowl and set aside.
• For the seasoned flour: Whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated garlic, white pepper, black pepper and ranch dressing mix in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• For the bronzing flour: Whisk together the blackfish seasoning, sugar and yellow flour in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• For the snapper: Dredge the fish through the crepe batter and then place immediately into the seasoned flour and cover generously on all sides. Set aside or in the fridge while the cream sauce is prepared.
• For the lime chipotle cream sauce: Make a roux: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet or saute pan over medium heat. Add the all-purpose flour and cook, stirring with a whisk constantly until the consistency of batter and there are no lumps, about 5 minutes. Let the mixture reach a simmer. Stir occasionally until the roux is brown and smooth, up to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Stir in the chipotles, adobo sauce and lime juice. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the cream, chicken base and hot sauce and simmer until reduced by one-third. Thicken with the roux a little bit at a time, making sure to whisk it in so it doesn't clump, until desired consistency is reached. Finish with salt and pepper.
• To finish the snapper: Heat a saute pan on medium heat. Lightly dust the snapper filet with the bronzing flour. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the hot pan. Cook the filet until crispy golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per each side. Finish with some lime chipotle cream sauce and the diced green onions. Reserve the remaining lime chipotle sauce for another use.

Steps:

• Season the fish with salt and pepper. Put the 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish. Put the egg substitute in another shallow dish. Dredge the fillets in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then coat the fillets in the egg substitute and let them sit in the substitute until ready to add to the pan.
• Heat 2 large nonstick sauté pans over medium heat. When the pans are hot, spray them with cooking spray and add 2 fillets to each pan. Cook until the fillets are golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a serving platter, and tent it with foil to keep them warm.
• In one of the sauté pans, melt the butter over high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons flour into the butter. Add the lemon juice and chicken broth, and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the parsley, and season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Spoon the sauce over the fish, and serve.
