Essential Lemon Garlic Sauce Recipes

LEMON GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• In a 12-inch non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant, while stirring constantly.
• Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute or until lightly golden, stirring constantly. You want to cook off the raw flour taste. Make sure not to burn it.
• Gradually add in the half and half, stirring as you pour. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the sauce thickens about 1-2 minutes. If any lumps form, whisk them out. The sauce should easily coat the back of a spoon.
• Whisk in lemon juice and zest. Stir in Parmesan cheese and parsley. The cheese should immediately melt into the sauce. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a pot on the stove top over medium heat.
• Add flour. Quickly whisk the flour and butter together to form a paste, and cook this for a few seconds while stirring.
• Combine milk and chicken stock, and pour a splash of the liquid into the pot. Whisk until the liquid is incorporated into the flour paste, then add a little more. Continue to gradually add liquid until the sauce has an even, smooth consistency.
• Add very finely diced garlic, apple cider vinegar and seasoning to the sauce, and keep whisking. The sauce will gradually thicken. Add additional seasoning, and lemon juice to taste. I like to squeeze half a lemon at a time, and then check to see if more is needed. Serve the sauce immediately.

Steps:

• Place garlic and shallots in a small, heavy saucepan. Add wine and simmer slowly until reduced by half and shallots and garlic are soft, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.
• Gradually whisk in egg yolks, return to stove and cook, whisking constantly over medium heat, until mixture thickens to the consistency of heavy cream. Do not allow to boil or eggs will curdle.
• Dissolve cornstarch in 1 tablespoon cold water. Whisk into pan and cook until sauce thickens. Slowly but vigorously whisk in olive oil. Add stock, adjusting the quantity to make the sauce thicker or thinner as desired. Strain sauce into a clean saucepan, pressing on the solids. Season with salt and pepper and add additional seasonings to taste, if desired.
• To serve hot, reheat, but do not boil. Sauce may also be served at room temperature or chilled.
