BASIL LEMON BUTTER CREAM SAUCE
This is a sauce recipe that was a frequent complement to chicken and fish during my study abroad residence experience with a french family in the Loire Valley region. Cream sauces are very popular paired with white and rosé wines in this geography, and this goes well over a thinly sliced breast of chicken, or a flaky whitefish. Although the sauce itself is somewhat fattening, if used conservatively it's actually a light and refreshing compliment to poultry and fish in the summer. If you absolutely feel the need to tone down the fat, be careful as you don't want the sauce to become too thin as it won't coat as nicely. Enjoy!

RAVIOLI WITH BROWN BUTTER-BASIL SAUCE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:
- Have water boiling for pasta when you start the sauce. In sauce pan, heat butter over medium high heat and cook until browned. Add olive oil and reduce heat. Toss ravioli in boiling water; toss walnuts into butter to brown lightly. Fresh pasta only takes a few minutes to cook so watch carefully. As you're draining the ravioli, throw the basil in the sauce just to wilt. Plate ravioli and pour sauce over. Pass parmesan separately. Other ideas: if you like more sauce on your pasta, try adding some chicken or vegetable broth to the sauce just long enough to heat -- a few tablespoons per serving. Try different herbs -- rosemary or sage are both excellent. Try different ravioli -- sweet potato or winter squash are good with sage.

SALMON WITH LEMON BUTTER BASIL SAUCE
Steps:
- Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan. Add the garlic, artichokes, and sun-dried tomatoes and cook 3 minutes over medium low heat. Add the lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and cook over low heat until thickened. Just before serving, stir in the fresh, chopped basil.

Brush the salmon with the 3 tbs. of oil then sprinkle on the crumbs. Place hot oven and roast until done, but still moist inside. (cooking time depends on the thickness of your salmon fillets). Or, grill the salmon on a hot grill until cooked. Serve each steak topped with a scoop of the sauce. Cooks Tip: The salmon should flake with a fork when done, but the center should remain moist and pink. Variations: Tyr adding a teaspoon or so of drained capers, or 10 to 12 pitted and chopped black olives to this sauce.

Steps:
- Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and pound each piece to an even thickness, about one inch or so in the thickest parts (this just helps it cook faster and more evenly). Remove the plastic and sprinkle each piece of chicken generously with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Prep the tomatoes, garlic, and basil and set aside. Make the pasta according to package directions. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet until a drop of water sizzles across the top. Add the chicken and pan-fry for several minutes on each side The goal here is to get the chicken cooked AND get a nice browning on the outside. When the chicken is done, set aside. Give the oil a few minutes to cool, add the tomatoes, and return to heat (if you add the tomatoes to the hot oil it will be a splatter-fest). Simmer to cook the tomatoes down into a chunky-sauce-like-mixture. Add the garlic and butter and stir to combine until the butter is melted. Add the chicken back in to soak in the sauce for a few minutes. Just before serving, stir in the basil. Top servings of pasta with the chicken and the sauce.
