Spicy Alfredo Sauteed Fish Fillets

Submitted by Red Robin

"From "Pam Johnson's Gulf Coast Kitchen Seafood" Cookbook (p. 75). "Serving Suggestion: Great with rice pilaf, steamed asparagus, salad and garlic bread. The extra sauce is to-die-for drizzled over garlic bread." And it is! I have both of the cookbooks associated with Pam's recipes published in Texas Saltwater Fishing Magazine and highly recommend them!"
