A simple yet elegant creamy dairy-free and vegan basil lime sauce simmered stovetop. Use as a gourmet topping for pasta, risottos or veggies.
This gourmet vegetarian recipe is by Chef J. Scot Jones.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups dry white wine
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon minced shallot
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 3 tablespoons chilled Earth Balance, cut into bits
Preparation:
Place a skillet over medium-high heat and add the wine, garlic, shallot, sugar, and lime juice. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce is reduced by half, about 8 minutes.
Remove from the heat and slowly stir in the Earth Balance, one piece at a time. Remove from the heat. When the sauce has cooled and thickened slightly, stir in the basil.
Use your vegan basil lime sauce to make Chef Scot's Hot Italian peppers stuffed with herbed risotto.
