Sauce Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced, or 1 bulb roasted
  • 0.5 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 cup dry white wine not sweet, Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large 10" skillet over medium heat. When the butter begins sizzling, turn the heat to low and add the garlic and granulated garlic.
  • Cook, stirring constantly for about 1 minute, not letting the garlic brown.
  • Add the white wine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce until the wine is just a ¼" skim in the pan.
  • Next, add the heavy cream and bring the mixture back to a simmer. Do not let it come to a hard boil because it will boil over the pan.
  • Reduce the sauce over a low simmer until it lightly thickens and coats the back of a spoon if you're using it for pasta. Reduce a little more if you're serving it over protein.
  • Season to taste with sea salt and pepper, sprinkle with the freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

Roasted garlic is wonderful in this cream sauce. It takes 1 hour to cook in the oven. Granulated garlic is similar to garlic powder but slightly coarser with a toasty flavor.
