Creamy Lemon Butter Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 large egg yolks
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon dill
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons half and half

Instructions

1. 1
   Add the egg yolks, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper to a blender.
2. 2
   Blend the ingredients at a medium-high speed for 10 seconds until well blended. Turn off the blender.
3. 3
   In a small microwave safe bowl, add the butter and half and half.
4. 4
   Microwave the bowl for 30 seconds. The butter should be melted and very warm/hot.
5. 5
   While the butter mixture is still hot, turn the blender back on again at medium speed.
6. 6
   With the blender running, slowly add the butter mixture to the egg mixture.
7. 7
   The heat from the butter will cook the egg mixture through and produce a thin, creamy sauce.
8. 8
   Pour the sauce into a bowl and serve immediately.
9. 9
   The longer the sauce rests on the counter, the thicker it will get.
