Ingredients
- 1 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ c. chicken stock
- 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
- ½ c. heavy cream
- 1 tbsp. cornstarch
- kosher salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Whisk in the chicken broth and Dijon mustard, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and cornstarch until smooth. Reduce the heat to low and slowly whisk the slurry into the saucepan.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve warm.
Notes
- Cook the garlic just until fragrant to prevent bitterness.
- Keep the sauce at a gentle simmer for the smoothest texture.
- Whisk the cream and cornstarch together until completely smooth before adding.
- Taste before serving and adjust the salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve warm for the best flavor and consistency.
