BASIL LEMON BUTTER CREAM SAUCE



Basil Lemon Butter Cream Sauce image

This is a sauce recipe that was a frequent complement to chicken and fish during my study abroad residence experience with a french family in the Loire Valley region. Cream sauces are very popular paired with white and rosé wines in this geography, and this goes well over a thinly sliced breast of chicken, or a flaky whitefish. Although the sauce itself is somewhat fattening, if used conservatively it's actually a light and refreshing compliment to poultry and fish in the summer. If you absolutely feel the need to tone down the fat, be careful as you don't want the sauce to become too thin as it won't coat as nicely. Enjoy!

AWESOME LEMON CREAM SAUCE W/PARMESAN & BASIL



Awesome Lemon Cream Sauce w/Parmesan & Basil image

I worked on this for a bit of time... I wanted a sauce that was flavorful, but didn't overwhelm the dining experience. This sauce is packed with flavor but allows the flavors of the other parts of the meal to come through... It compliments; not overpowers. Drizzle this sauce on pork, chicken or fish... Use it as a dip for veggies... Put it on the back of you hand and lick it off. This is one yummy sauce, and can be produced in one pan. In this recipe I sautéed a chicken breast and made some baked red potatoes with some steamed broccoli... YUMMY. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.
