Creamy Lemon Piccata Sauce

 

Sauces give almost every dish an extra element of flavor + dimension. Creamy Piccata Sauce is lemony, garlicky, savory and creamy without the addition of flour. I ladle this sauce over Chicken 'N' Rice Casserole and cuddle-up with my favorite western (Silverado, of course) or nestle into a rocker on the back patio to take-in the sunset.
