Ingredients List
- ✓ 1/2 cup Unsalted butter
- ✓ 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- ✓ 1–2 tbsp Peppajoy Hot Sauce
- ✓ 1 tsp Lemon or Lime juice
- ✓ 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
- ✓ Pinch of Salt
- ✓ Black pepper (to taste)
- ✓ Pinch of Cayenne pepper (optional)
Execution Steps
Melt and Sauté: Place the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once the butter is fully melted and begins to warm, add the minced garlic and cook for roughly 30 seconds, stirring continuously until intensely fragrant without letting the garlic brown.
Infuse and Simmer: Stir the Peppajoy hot sauce, lemon or lime juice, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper directly into the melted garlic butter. Keep the heat low and let the mixture simmer gently for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly to marry the rich butter with the bright, spicy flavors.
Serve Warm: Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the dip into warm ramekins. Serve immediately while hot and fluid alongside seafood delicacies like crab legs, fried shrimp, and lobster, or as a rich coating for fries, corn on the cob, and crispy chicken tenders.
