Rinse the strawberries thoroughly, remove their green tops, and if desired, slice them in halves. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it becomes fully liquid.
Step 3
Add the brown sugar to the melted butter and stir constantly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula to combine.

Allow the mixture to cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture begins to bubble gently.

Add the orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Step 7
Continue cooking the sauce over medium-low heat for another 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and has a glossy, smooth consistency.
