Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 stick butter (4 T)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 small shallot, minced

salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Light a grill. Brush the grate with oil. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the garlic, shallots and seafood seasoning and cook over high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes; don't let the garlic brown.
