Instructions

1. Sear the Snapper:

2. Make the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, melt butter. Sauté shallot, garlic, bell pepper, and celery for 3 minutes.  
- Stir in seasoning, then deglaze with wine or stock. Simmer until reduced by half.  
- Lower heat; add cream, mustard, Worcestershire, and lemon juice. Simmer 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Season to taste.

3. Plate with Elegance:
- Spoon a modest amount of sauce onto plates.  
- Place snapper skin-side up atop the sauce.  
- Garnish with lemon slices, sautéed tomatoes, brunoise tomato, parsley, and edible flowers.
