Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 50 grams unsalted butter
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 60 milliliters orange juice
- 60 milliliters Cointreau or Grand Marnier
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
Instructions
Wash and hull the strawberries, then set them aside to dry completely.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, add the granulated sugar and stir until dissolved.
Add the orange zest and orange juice to the skillet, then stir to combine.
Carefully add the strawberries to the skillet and gently toss them in the sauce until they are coated and slightly softened. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper over the strawberries for a subtle kick of heat.
Turn off the stovetop burner and pour the Cointreau or Grand Marnier over the strawberries. Quickly ignite the liquor with a long lighter or match for a dramatic flambé effect. Gently shake the skillet to distribute the flame until it burns out.
Serve the strawberries immediately over scoops of vanilla ice cream, drizzling the warm sauce on top.
