Anchovy Butter Sauce - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 (3 ounce) can anchovies
1/2 cup white wine
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons capers (more or less if you like)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 lemon, thin sliced (1 slice for the sauce, the rest for a garnish)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, fine chopped
pepper
Garnish
paprika
remaining lemon slice
Preparation
-
Sauce -- Now, I like to use the same pan I cook the seafood or chicken in, but you can just make it in a small sauce pan if you want. Either works very well.
In the pan, heat to medium high heat and melt the butter. Then stir in the anchovies and mash with a fork as they cook. You only need to cook them just a couple of minutes. Then stir in the wine, garlic, capers, pepper and 1 lemon slice and squeeze slightly. Just cook another 2-3 minutes and remove from the heat. Stir in the parsley and remove the lemon slice.
Serve -- Just garnish your dish with one of the lemon slices and pour the butter sauce over your dish. A little pinch of paprika gives it nice color and a little spice to the sauce.
