Equipment
- Small saucepan
- Whisk
- Measuring cups
- Chef Knife
- Glass Bowl
Ingredients
- 1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter
- 2 Tbsp Lime Juice
- 1 Tbsp Minced Garlic
- 2 Tbsp Hot Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Cilantro
- 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
Instructions
- Place the saucepan on the stove over low heat. Add the cold sticks of unsalted butter. Let it melt slowly so it does not brown.
- Add the finely minced garlic to the melted butter. Stir it gently for one minute. Do not let the garlic turn dark brown.
- Pour in the fresh lime juice and hot sauce. Whisk the mixture until the color is even. Keep the heat very low during this part.
- Stir in the chopped cilantro and black pepper. Add a pinch of salt to the warm sauce. Taste it to see if it needs more salt.
- Turn off the heat once everything is warm. Let the sauce sit for two minutes. This helps the flavors meld together perfectly.
Notes
- Use fresh lime juice for the best citrus flavor.
- Keep the heat low to prevent the butter from breaking.
- Mince the garlic very small so it stays soft.
- Whisk constantly to keep the sauce smooth and creamy.
- Add more hot sauce if you want extra spice.
