Butter Sauce, for dipping


Sometimes, it's the sauces that make all the difference,
Try this fresh butter sauce, loaded with herbs.

INGREDIENTS

6 Tablespoons butter, melted 
             (I like grass-fed Kerrygold butter)
juice and zest of half a lemon
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
pinch of cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
1 tablespoon fresh chopped chives
2 teaspoons minced thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper


DIRECTIONS

In a small bowl combine melted butter, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, cayenne, and paprika.  Whisk the sauce to combine.

Stir in parsley, chives, crushed red pepper flakes, and thyme.  Season with salt and pepper.

Serve with grilled meats or chicken bites, for dipping.

NOTE 
Feel free to double quantities if you want more sauce. 
For thicker butter sauce, add more mustard.
