List of Ingredients




1 Tbs. olive oil
1 1/ 2 cups peeled, seeded and chopped tomatoes (about 1 lb.)
2 tsp. minced garlic
1/ 2 cup sweet butter softened
2 tsp. grated lemon rind
1/ 2 tsp. salt
1/ 8 tsp. pepper
1/ 4 cup minced fresh basil



Recipe



Heat the olive oil in a small skillet. Add the tomatoes and garlic and saute, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the tomatoes form a puree that will mound. Let cool.

Put the butter in a mixing bowl and beat in the tomatoes and remaining ingredients.

Can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated but best served at room temperature so that it will melt quickly over the food, such as grilled shrimp, fish, chicken, pork, vegetables.


Follow directions for Chicken Kiev, but use this instead. Serve with pasta.
