Categories     Sauce

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 garlic cloves
3 lemons ((juice only))
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a pot on the stove top over medium heat.
  • Add flour. Quickly whisk the flour and butter together to form a paste, and cook this for a few seconds while stirring.
  • Combine milk and chicken stock, and pour a splash of the liquid into the pot. Whisk until the liquid is incorporated into the flour paste, then add a little more. Continue to gradually add liquid until the sauce has an even, smooth consistency.
  • Add very finely diced garlic, apple cider vinegar and seasoning to the sauce, and keep whisking. The sauce will gradually thicken. Add additional seasoning, and lemon juice to taste. I like to squeeze half a lemon at a time, and then check to see if more is needed. Serve the sauce immediately.
