Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, about 2 minutes, without browning.
  2. Add garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Cook 1 minute until fragrant and the butter turns deep golden.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, Dijon, Worcestershire, parsley, and chives. Serve warm.

Notes

The sauce will firm up as it cools, so give it a gentle reheat before serving. Fresh herbs give the brightest result, but if you must use dried, cut the amounts by half.
