Description
Lemon Caper Sauce is a simple yet elegant addition that elevates any meal with its bright, tangy flavor. The richness of the butter is perfectly balanced by the tartness of lemon juice, while the capers add a touch of briny flavor that enhances seafood, chicken, or even pasta. With the added freshness of parsley and the warmth of garlic, this sauce is a versatile and flavorful choice for any dish.
Ingredients
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons jarred capers, drained
1 clove garlic, grated or minced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
Kosher salt, to taste
Instructions
In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat.
Once the butter is melted, add the capers and garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
Remove the skillet from the heat, then stir in the lemon juice and minced parsley. Season to taste with kosher salt.
Serve the sauce warm over fish, shrimp, or chicken for a burst of bright, tangy flavor.
