Beurre Noisette-Lemon Butter Sauce image

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 stick Butter
1 teaspoon Parsley-Fresh Chopped
1/4 cup Shallots
1/2 cup Lemon-Fresh Squeezed
1 teaspoon salt
1 pinch pepper

Steps:

First, find a small saucepan with a sturdy bottom and melt the butter over medium to low heat.
As the butter cooks, gently swirl the pan to keep it moving without scorching. Keep your eye on the heat-beurre noisette can burn in seconds, if you're not careful.
Over the next 4 to 5 minutes, (keep swirling!) the butter should turn a deep, golden brown and take on a nutty aroma.
As soon as that happens, stir in the minced shallots and let them cook in the butter for 30 seconds or so.
Next, remove from the heat and immediately stir in the thyme, parsley, lemon juice, and salt and pepper.
Give the butter sauce a final stir, and it's ready to go.
