BASIL LEMON BUTTER CREAM SAUCE

This is a sauce recipe that was a frequent complement to chicken and fish during my study abroad residence experience with a french family in the Loire Valley region. Cream sauces are very popular paired with white and rosé wines in this geography, and this goes well over a thinly sliced breast of chicken, or a flaky whitefish. Although the sauce itself is somewhat fattening, if used conservatively it's actually a light and refreshing compliment to poultry and fish in the summer. If you absolutely feel the need to tone down the fat, be careful as you don't want the sauce to become too thin as it won't coat as nicely. Enjoy!

CHICKEN IN TOMATO-BASIL CREAM SAUCE

This recipe was inspired by all our fresh garden tomatoes and herbs. In summer, I grill the chicken with some Italian seasonings and a bit of garlic powder, but on rainy days or in winter, I cook it on the stovetop. -Rachel Kowasic, Connellsville, Pennsylvania

BASIL BUTTER CREAM SAUCE

I threw this together one night when I had a craving for something salty and creamy. This is just the recipe for the basic sauce, but you can use it over anything from pasta, veggies, meat, or a combination of them all! This recipe makes alot, but it'll keep in the fridge for a week or so. I always finish all of it up within a week and I'm only one person! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! *Note: Make sure you use Dried Basil only or it wont tast right at all!

3/4 cup sweet unsalted butter (make sure it's unsalted)
1 (24 ounce) carton sour cream (I use full fat because I think fat free tastes funny, but that's my own personal opinion)
1 (16 ounce) carton half-and-half (You can use Whipping Cream if you would like the sauce to be richer)
6 -8 tablespoons instant chicken bouillon granules (Depending on the desired saltiness)
2 tablespoons chopped garlic (I used the jarred kind because its eaiser than chopping my own)
1/4 cup dried basil, only crushed (I've tried it with fresh Basil and it doesn't even come close to taste!)
