SAVOURY AMARETTO CREAM SAUCE



Savoury Amaretto Cream Sauce image

A lovely sauce for pasta and chicken (or whatever you may like). Not for dieters, but worth every calorie! I love amaretto and looked high and low for a sauce recipe. I couldn't find any on Zaar that fit the bill so this one was created based on the few that I found from other online sources. It does not have an overwhelmingly amaretto flavour, but you will detect a hint of sweetness. Smells divine! Note: Cook time is approximate and your yield may vary, depending on how much you let it reduce after each addition.

ALMOND SHRIMP WITH AMARETTO BUTTER



Almond Shrimp with Amaretto Butter image

A fabulous, romantic dish for two - and it's quick and easy! I adapted the recipe from a Junior League of Lafayette, LA recipe; they say that it is the creation of Sous Chef Bryan Richard of Chez Marcelle. The original recipe calls for an entire stick of butter, but I think you'll agree that 3 tbsp. is plenty. If you like Amaretto, you'll love this! It can be served with angel hair pasta, but I like to eat it without so as not to interfere with the delicious flavors.

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons butter
1/2 medium onion, finely minced
1 lb large shrimp, cleaned
1/2 cup amaretto liqueur
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat butter in skillet until golden brown, then saute onion in butter until translucent and barely browned.
  • Add shrimp and saute about 5 minutes.
  • Add amaretto, almonds and salt and cook on medium heat for another 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Serve alone as an elegant appetizer, or over angel hair pasta as an entree.

Tips:

- To make a smooth and lump-free sauce, whisk while melting the butter over low heat, and slowly whisk in the sugar and flour. - To achieve a richer flavor, use unsalted butter and add a pinch of salt to taste. - For a more intense almond flavor, use homemade amaretto extract or a high-quality store-bought brand. - If you don't have heavy cream on hand, you can substitute milk or half-and-half. - You can add a splash of Grand Marnier or Cointreau for an extra layer of orange flavor. - For a boozy twist, add a shot of amaretto liqueur to the sauce. - Serve the sauce warm over pancakes, waffles, French toast, or ice cream for a delightful dessert.

With its irresistibly sweet and nutty flavor, this amaretto butter sauce is an easy-to-make and versatile treat that can elevate any breakfast or dessert.
