Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 medium, finely chopped shallots
• 3 finely minced garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup, finely grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons (or to taste) salt
• 0.25 teaspoons (or to taste) black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped shallots and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and whisk continuously to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable stock while whisking to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, allowing the sauce to gently heat through, about 2 minutes.

Step 7

Add the Parmesan cheese, fresh thyme, and parsley, stirring until the cheese is fully melted and the herbs are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Stir in the lemon juice, taste the sauce, and season with salt and black pepper as needed.

Step 9

Remove the sauce from heat and serve immediately over your choice of pasta, roasted vegetables, or grilled protein.
