Flavored Butters

Halibut with Parmesan Parsley Butter

Flavored butters are as versatile in ingredients as they are in their uses. Flavored butters are a great finish to grilled or broiled steak, fish, on gf bread, vegetables, chicken and too many things to mention them all! Flavored butters are a wonderful way to add a splash of flavor to grilled or broiled meats and fish without changing or adding any more steps. Flavored butters can change a plain meal to a meal with layers of flavor, simply and quickly. Make a few different flavored butters and store them in your refrigerator or freezer for future use. They are a great way to create a delicious meal when you’re out of time and need to pull an Ace out of your pocket. To serve, simply place a slice of the flavored butter on the cooked food and heat to just melting with a kitchen torch or briefly in the broiler.
