Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 2 shallots, finely minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or seafood stock
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Finely mince the garlic and shallots, chop the fresh parsley and thyme, and measure out the lemon juice and white wine or seafood stock. Having everything ready streamlines the cooking process.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and shallots, cooking gently for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent without browning.
  3. Deglaze and Reduce: Pour in the white wine or seafood stock, stirring to scrape and lift any browned bits from the pan. Allow the mixture to simmer and reduce by half to concentrate the flavors.
  4. Add Cream and Herbs: Reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream if using. Add the chopped fresh parsley and thyme along with the lemon juice. Simmer briefly until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors meld.
  5. Season and Finish: Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust lemon juice or seasoning as desired, then remove from heat and serve.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic, herbs, and lemon juice for the best flavor.
  • Cook garlic and shallots on low heat to avoid browning.
  • Choose a dry white wine like Sauvignon Blanc for brightness without sweetness.
  • Add lemon juice gradually to balance acidity.
  • Serve the sauce immediately with seafood or steak to maintain tenderness.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat gently over low heat with stirring, adding cream or stock if the sauce thickens too much.
