BASIL LEMON BUTTER CREAM SAUCE
This is a sauce recipe that was a frequent complement to chicken and fish during my study abroad residence experience with a french family in the Loire Valley region. Cream sauces are very popular paired with white and rosé wines in this geography, and this goes well over a thinly sliced breast of chicken, or a flaky whitefish. Although the sauce itself is somewhat fattening, if used conservatively it's actually a light and refreshing compliment to poultry and fish in the summer. If you absolutely feel the need to tone down the fat, be careful as you don't want the sauce to become too thin as it won't coat as nicely. Enjoy!

No actual cream is used. This is very nice over pasta. If you want you can also add some smoked salmon or chunks of tunafish.

- Remove the roux from the heat. add the heated chicken stock to all roux slowly, in stages, being sure to return the roux to a smooth paste or slurry after each addition.
- When all of the chicken stock has been incorporated, return the pan to medium heat and cook until the stock has thickened into a veloute, while still on medium heat, add the lemon juice, lemon zest, basil, white wine, salt and sugar to the veloute.
- Stir and cook for two minutes, then slowly add the cream. At this point, add additional stock or reduce the sauce to the desired thickness and adjust the seasonings to your personal taste.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and pour over the chicken breasts.
- *NOTE: This dish freezes nicely. If you are making ahead, cook sauce, pour 1/2 cup or more over each chicken breast, covering the chicken completely. Store in a refrigerator or freezer. To reheat (if frozen, thaw in the refrigerator the night before the day of consumption) heat in microwave using 70% power for approximately 3 minutes or until hot throughout.
