- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup half and half or light cream
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine butter and garlic in a small skillet and cook over medium low heat until the butter is melted and you can begin to smell the garlic.

- Remove from heat and stir in parsley. Season generously with salt & pepper to taste.
- Serve with pasta or as a dipping sauce for chicken, shrimp or steak.
Notes
- Be sure to cook garlic just until fragrant, do not let the garlic brown.
- 1/3 cup freshly shredded parmesan cheese can be added. Whisk in once the sauce is thickened.
- This sauce can be served with pasta or over seafood or steamed vegetables.
- Store sauce in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave until heated through, mixing occasionally.
