Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup almonds, sliced
2 tablespoons Amaretto
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 chicken bouillon cube, crushed

Steps:

  • In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter and brown the almonds until golden brown; be very careful as they will burn quickly.
  • As soon as the almonds are nicely browned, add the Amaretto; be extremely careful as it should and will flame up for about 10 seconds or so.
  • After about 30 to 40 seconds you will have very little liquid in the pan (it will be dark brown).
  • Add the cream, tomato paste, and the crushed bouillon cube and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to a rolling simmer and reduce by half (about 12 minutes) stirring often.
  • The finished sauce should have a beige, ever so slight pink color and coat the back of a spoon.
  • NOTE: If the Amaretto doesn't flare up in the pan, don't worry! Your sauce will be fine.
