Flavor. That’s the one requirement I have for food. It can be spicy or robust or laden with fat, but food needs to have flavor for me to enjoy it. And this simple recipe for an infused butter with lemon and garlic is, not only quick to make, packed with zing.
As I was planning my regular shopping trip to Walmart, I checked out the Walmart Holiday Entertaining Guide and fell head over heals in love with so many of their ideas. But this infused butter sauce recipe stuck out to me because I have a lemon tree that’s over-flowing with fruit and needed a quick sauce for that night’s salmon dinner. It’s a great base, to which you can add fresh herbs or as a base for a cream sauce. I’m definetly keeping it my back pocket for future use!
