- Add the tomatoes and seasonings; simmer about 30 minutes or until thick.
- Set aside.
- To make the Hollandaise sauce: Place the first three ingredients in the top of a double boiler over hot water and whisk until thick and creamy, taking care that the eggs don't curdle.
- Add the butter a little at a time while still whisking.
- If the sauce is too thick, thin with warm water.
- Season to taste and keep warm over hot water until needed.
- For the vegetable garnish: Boil the vegetables in salted water until crisp-tender, about six minutes; drain well.
- Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat, add the vegetables and saute for a minute or so; sprinkle with next four ingredients and continue cooking for an additional three minutes.
- For the fish: preheat the oven to 400F.
- Place about 3 cups of Creole sauce in the bottom of a large casserole dish or skillet.
- Place the fish fillets on top of the sauce; place equal amounts of shrimp on each fillet and top with remaining sauce.
