Red Wine Herb Butter Sauce

I made this scrumptious sauce over boneless chicken thighs, and did adjust it a bit, and found it to be just delicious!

Red Wine Herb Butter Sauce

Meat of your choice - lamb, pork or chicken

2 cup dry red wine

1 lg shallot, finely minced

1 clove garlic, finely minced

1/2# unsalted butter at room temperature

1 1/2 T finely chopped mixed fresh herbs: Chives, parsley, tarragon & thyme 

Salt and pepper

1/2 tsp lemon juice

 

Bring red wine, minced shallots and garlic to a boil in a small saucepan.  Turn heat down, simmer until there is about 1 tablespoon of liquid left in the pan.  Add room temperature butter, herbs and lemon juice.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  

(The recipe calls to refrigerate until needed, but I added my chicken at this point)

I did not have any fresh herbs, but had them in my spice cabinet, and tasted wonderful!

 

 

Beat butter in a food processor until

That sauce sounds incredible, Joan! A rich red wine butter sauce like this would be perfect for a cozy mountain evening here in Big Bear, especially after a long day in the snow. I’ll have to try it over a seared steak next time—thanks for sharing!

Dennis Neal I actually thought about over steak too, but I usually grill my steak, and marinade in Brazilian herbs.

As a non-meat eater I wonder if this sauce would be good over tofu? lol

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty I was actually wondering if it would be good over veggies.   Probably over tufu too, I just don't eat that.

Hi Joan-Larry loves sauces so I will try to make this one. I make one now with capers, lemon juice, and chicken broth.
