    Source of Recipe


    Submitted by Brandon Johnstun

    Recipe Introduction


    This is a quick and easy sauce for meats, seafood, and vegetables. The lighter the meat, the thinner the sauce. You can substitute the juice and peel for any citrus fruit you like, or combination. You can also use pureed fruits, leaving out the salt.

    2. When the sauce thickens, take off the heat and add in lemon peel and juice, and butter. Mix till smooth.

    *Use a fruit puree, while dropping the salt, and sweetening it up with some sugar.

    *Make it a thick sauce for a bbq piece of chicken, and a very thin sauce for a light fish like halibut.
