Creamy Lemon Butter Sauce Recipe

    Ingredients

  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons half and half

Directions

  • Add the egg yolks, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper to a blender.
  • Blend the ingredients at a medium-high speed for 10 seconds until well blended. Turn off the blender.
  • In a small microwave safe bowl, add the butter and half and half.
  • Microwave the bowl for 30 seconds. The butter should be melted and very warm/hot.
  • While the butter mixture is still hot, turn the blender back on again at medium speed.
  • With the blender running, slowly add the butter mixture to the egg mixture.
  • The heat from the butter will cook the egg mixture through and produce a thin, creamy sauce.
  • Pour the sauce into a bowl and serve immediately.
  • The longer the sauce rests on the counter, the thicker it will get.
  • Feel free to add more lemon juice, dill, salt, or pepper to your liking.
