This Dijon & Dill Creamed Pea Sauce is so simple to make and would work well on both chicken and fish.
Prep: 5 mins
Cook: 15 mins
Yields: 6 Servings
Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups frozen peas
3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
Directions
1In a medium sauce pan heat butter over medium heat until melted. Whisk in flour, salt, and turmeric; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add stock all at once. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Whisk in mustard and cream; bring to boiling. Stir in peas. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 9 minutes or until peas are just tender and sauce reduces to a gravy-like consistency, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and stir in dill. Serve over chicken or salmon.
