Veal with Basil Butter
BASIL, BASIL AND MORE BASIL
Tender Veal with Basil Butter blends the flavors of basil, garlic, butter, shallots, white wine and chicken stock into a delicious sauce. If you want to add a little cream go right ahead. But I think the butter is more than enough.
Basil butter can be easily made and used on toasted bread, corn on the cob, grilled lamb chops, steak, chicken, seafood or grilled vegetables. You can always make more than this recipe and refrigerate the rest for another time. Don’t forget to use it on broiled lobster tails. That’s the best.
This Veal with Basil Butter is also excellent when made with chicken. INGREDIENTS
