Lemon Onion Sauce Food

LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small, heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Cook, swirling constantly, until butter turns dark golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in shallots until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove pan from heat and stir in parsley, thyme, and lemon juice.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper). Serve immediately.

SUNNY'S EASY BAKED LEMON SOLE AND SPRING ONIONS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil and place it in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the butter: Meanwhile, whisk together the butter, lemon zest and juice, capers, garlic and salt in a medium bowl.
• For the sheet: Slice the spring onions in half lengthwise. If using scallions, they can be left whole.
• Make sure you have all of your ingredients ready to go so you can assemble the sheet and return it to the oven quickly. Remove the sheet from the oven once the oven is preheated. Quickly add the fish in a row, leaving about an inch between each piece. Drizzle the butter mixture over the top, add the lemon slices over the fish, then the spring onions. Sprinkle with paprika. Return the sheet to the oven and bake until cooked through, 12 to 18 minutes. Serve warm, preferably with garlicky mashed potatoes!

GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Cut the avocados in 1/2, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl. (I use my hands.) Immediately add the lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.

FOUR-STEP LEMON-ONION CHICKEN

Steps:

• Season the chicken with the dried thyme, and salt and pepper to taste. Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Put the flour in a shallow dish. Working in batches, dredge the chicken in the flour and add to the pan; saute until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent with aluminum foil.
• Add the red onion and fresh thyme to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until aromatic, about 5 minutes.
• Combine the wine, chicken broth and the juice of 1 lemon in a bowl. Turn the heat under the pan to high and deglaze with the broth mixture, scraping up the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until the liquid starts to reduce, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1 1/2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, put the spinach in a microwave-safe dish and add 3 tablespoons water; cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave until hot and wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and toss with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter, the juice of the remaining lemon, and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange on a platter and top with the chicken. Spoon the sauce on top.

PYAZ KA LACCHA (RAW ONION RELISH)

Steps:

• Put onions in a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside to soak for 15 minutes. (This removes some of the onion's bite, but you can skip this step if you'd like a stronger onion flavor.)
• Drain onions and thoroughly pat dry. Return onions to the bowl and stir in lemon juice, salt, paprika and cayenne. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld before serving. Taste and add more salt, lemon and spices, if you like.
• Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Serve alongside grilled or roasted meats and fish; stuff into sandwiches, especially grilled cheese or tuna salad; use as a topping for pizza, burgers and hot dogs; scramble into eggs; toss into salads, especially starchy grain and potato salads.

LEMON DILL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the shallots, garlic, wine, and lemon. Bring the liquid up to a boil. Stir in the dill and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk in the mustard and cream, continue to cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in the butter a cube at a time, until all the butter is incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Place the grilled vegetables on the platter. Lay the cakes directly on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the sauce over the cakes. Garnish with the sizzled leeks and Essence.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

ROASTED ONIONS WITH LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Scatter the rosemary leaves and thyme sprigs on the baking sheet. Season the onions with salt and pepper; arrange on top of the herbs, cut-side down.
• Remove 4 wide strips zest from the lemons using a vegetable peeler; set aside. Cut each lemon in half and remove any seeds; add to the baking sheet cut-side down. Roast until the onions are tender and the skins are slightly charred, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette: Combine the vegetable oil, vinegar, mustard and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender. With the motor running, gradually drizzle in the remaining 6 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons water until emulsified. Transfer to a small bowl; add the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper. Let steep at least 30 minutes; remove the lemon zest.
• Remove and discard the skins from the onions. Arrange the onions, lemons and herbs on a platter and drizzle with the vinaigrette just before serving. (The roasted onions and vinaigrette can be made up to 4 hours ahead. Serve at room temperature.)
