Lemon Dill Sauce

Because we are featuring More Than Gourmet products along with a special sale for a short period of time we thought we would adapt another of their wonderful recipes using Jus de Poulet Gold or in plain old English chicken demi glace. (a thick rich chicken based sauce)

This is an easy sauce to prepare with just a few ingredients but oh so delicious over grilled chicken or vegetables. More Than Gourmet describes it as a smooth, luscious sauce with the tang of lemon and fresh herbal notes of dill.

Lemon Dill Sauce
Serves: 4

Ingredients:

1.5 oz Jus de Poulet Gold by More Than Gourmet
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tbs fresh lemon juice
1 tbs fresh dill, chopped
salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions:

1. Bring water to boil in a medium saucepan over a medium low heat. Add the Jus de Poulet and whisk until dissolved.

2. Whisk in the remaining ingredients until the sauce begins to simmer. Adjust the flavor with salt and pepper and serve.

TIPS: This sauce will also go well with grilled fish such as salmon, halibut or swordfish.
