Lemon Butter Sauce for Fish

I LOVE seafood, it is my absolute favorite.
But it has to be juicy and interesting, i'm not into the plain stuff.
So this little sauce is the perfect thing to jazz up your favorite fish.
We use it on salmon quite a bit!

Ingredients: 
1 tablespoon fresh garlic
1 tablespoon chopped shallot
4 tablespoons white wine
3 Tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 pound butter
salt and pepper to taste

Directions: 
1. Combine garlic, shallot, white wine, and lemon juice in a saucepan and simmer on medium heat until volume is reduced by half.  Then turn heat to low.
2. Slowly begin adding pieces of the butter to the mixture a little bit at a time, whisking the entire time.
3. Salt and pepper to taste, sauce should be smooth and creamy

Serves: 8
That may seem like a large serving but I like to save the other half that my husband and I don't use and freeze it for the next time. 
ENJOY!
