Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 large Garlic clove
- 1 small Shallot
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Mince the garlic and shallot finely and set them aside.
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the extra-virgin olive oil. Once warmed, add the minced garlic and shallot.
Sauté the garlic and shallot gently until they become translucent, which should take about 2-3 minutes. Avoid browning them.
Stir in the Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar, and cook for another minute to combine and release flavors.
Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth and use a whisk to mix thoroughly, ensuring the mustard combines smoothly with the broth.
Reduce the heat to low and add the lemon juice, honey, fresh thyme, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients.
Allow the sauce to simmer lightly for 1-2 minutes, just until all flavors meld together. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving.
Serve drizzled over grilled fish, chicken, or use as a zesty salad dressing. Enjoy a heart-healthy addition to any meal!
