Sour Cream Garlic Chive Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Blend sour cream, water, juice, salt, and chives in a blender until mixture just turns pale green. Season with pepper.
• Prepare fish:
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Remove any pin bones from fish with tweezers or needle-nose pliers and pat fish dry with paper towels. Score skin in several places with a thin sharp knife to prevent fish from curling (do not cut through flesh) and season fish with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then sear fish, skin sides down, in 2 batches until skin is golden brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes (fish will not be fully cooked). Transfer, skin sides up, to an oiled shallow baking pan.
• Roast fish, uncovered, in middle of oven until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Spoon 3 tablespoons sauce onto each of 6 plates and top with potatoes and zucchini. Squeeze a lemon wedge over each fillet, then place fish, skin sides up, over vegetables. Top fish with sprouts.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, green onion, garlic, vinegar, tarragon, sugar and Worcestershire sauce and blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until serving. It will keep up to three days in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a pan and soften the onion, garlic and chives with the pan covered for 5 minutes.
• Pour in the wine and reduce by half on a high heat.
• Add the stock and reduce by half again.
• Turn the heat right down and stir in the cream.
• Simmer gently until reduced to a light, creamy consistency.
• Season to taste and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F and line the bottom of a 9x9-inch square baking pan with foil (I use release foil, but if you're not, grease the foil).
• With a really sharp knife (if you know how to do it) or a mandolin, cut the potatoes just about paper thin (like potato chips); place slices in a bowl of water and set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, over medium heat, melt the butter then add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes or until it starts to smell nutty.
• Whisk in the broth and the cream then bring it to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and add the chives, sour cream, salt, and pepper.
• Spread a little of the chive sauce on the bottom of the lines pan then place two layers of potatoes on top of that.
• Spread more of the chive sauce on that, sprinkle with cheese and start again the two layers of potatoes, then the cream sauce, then the cheese (You should get about 4 to 5 layers if the potatoes are really thinly sliced).
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes (the potatoes should fork tender, and if they're not, just cover them and cook them for another 10-15 minutes).
• Let rest on your counter for at least 10 minutes before cutting.
