Method
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Add the garlic and cook gently, stirring, until fragrant and soft but not browned, about 2 minutes.
Take the pan off the heat and stir in the lemon juice, parsley, red pepper flakes and salt. Spoon over steak, seafood or vegetables while warm.
Tips
- Keep the heat low. Browned garlic turns bitter quickly.
- Swirl in a tablespoon of grated Parmesan for a garlic Parmesan sauce.
- Leftovers firm up in the fridge into a garlic butter you can spread on bread.
