This is an easy and elegant sauce for seafood such as salmon, tilapia or shrimp. In a few minutes, it elevates your fish or shrimp from a basic meal to an extraordinary meal! I especially like this sauce with salmon. When I cook the salmon in a skillet, I like to scrape the small bits off the bottom of the skillet while the butter is melting.
