4 red snapper fillets
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup heavy cream (whipping cream unwhipped)
2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons butter

2 serrano chilies, stemmed, seeded and juienned (cut into thin strips)
1/2 cup sherry wine

1
Run your fingers over the middle and upper portions of each red snapper fillet to feel for bones. If you find any, pull them out and discard them.

In a shallow dish whisk the eggs, heavy cream and Tabasco sauce. Set aside.
3
In a separate shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper and cumin.
4
Dip each red snapper fillet into the egg mixture (known as an egg wash) and then coat (dredge) them in the flour mixture. Set the fillets aside 10 minutes.
5
In a large saute pan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the red snapper fillets and saute until golden on each side (about 7 minutes).
6
Remove the fish to a platter and keep warm.
7
Into the skillet add the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the corn, onion, tomatoes and both chilis and saute 10 minutes.
8
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the sherry (NEVER ADD ANY ALCOHOL TO A PAN OVER THE HEAT).
9
Place the pan back onto the heat. Add the fish, cover the pan and cook 5 minutes.

Remove the red snapper fillets and place on serving plates. Spoon the sauce and vegetable around the fillets and serve.
