I was looking for a way to use up some basil and saw a recipe for basil lemon butter sauce. I tried it and it was pretty good. Very basil. So if you like basil you should like this sauce. Sauce would also be good for vegetables.

Steps

1

Dry fish with a paper towel. Mix flour, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl or plate. Dredge fish through the seasoned flour. Shake off excess.
2

Add oil to a skillet and heat on medium heat. When hot add fish to skillet. Flip fish when cooked 1/2 way. When done remove to a plate. Repeat until all fish is cooked.
3

Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add chicken stock and lemon. Bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes to reduce liquid. Reduce heat to low and add butter pieces while stirring to melt the butter.
4

Add chopped basil and mix in. Taste the sauce and adjust if needed. If too tart you can add in a little sweetener like sugar or honey.
5

Plate the fish and spoon sauce over. Serve and enjoy!

“Fenway” passed away on 2/3/2021. For the last year she tried to teach her husband of 42 years how to cook like her. Although I will never be as good of a cook as her she did pass on her passion for cooking. Therefore, I will attempt to carry on her legacy and maintain/update her site. My wife was a Registered Nurse, a licensed deep water aerobics instructor, a mother to our 2 children and a fantastic cook. We grew up in New England but have been fortunate to live all over the US. I am now retired, missing her terribly, but thankful for all the years we had together and all her cooking lessons.
