Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (113g) Unsalted Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Zest
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Pepper Seasoning (salt-free)
  • 1 teaspoon Coarsely Cracked Black Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 3 tablespoons Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley, finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Place the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once melted and starting to foam slightly, add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
  2. Whisk in the lemon pepper seasoning, cracked black pepper, onion powder, and lemon zest. Toast the spices in the butter for 30 seconds to awaken the essential oils.
  3. Slowly pour in the fresh lemon juice and honey while whisking constantly to create a cohesive emulsified sauce.
  4. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 1–2 minutes until it thickens slightly to a glossy consistency that coats the back of a spoon.
  5. Taste the sauce and adjust salt if necessary. Remove from heat and stir in the fresh parsley.
