Instructions
Preparing the Easy Creamy Garlic Sauce is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to achieve a perfect consistency and taste:
- Melt the Butter: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. The butter serves as the base of the sauce, providing richness and depth of flavor.
- Sauté the Garlic: Add the grated garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 2 minutes until golden. This step releases the garlic’s natural oils and enhances its aroma.
- Add Italian Seasoning: Stir in the Italian seasoning and cook for another 30 seconds. This seasoning adds a blend of herbs that complement the garlic beautifully.
- Incorporate Vegetable Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. The broth adds a savory element to the sauce and helps to thin it out.
- Mix in Cream Cheese or Yogurt: Mix in the softened cream cheese or yogurt until smooth. Allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened. This step creates the creamy texture that defines the sauce.
- Serve: The sauce is now ready to be served over chicken, vegetables, or pasta. Enjoy the rich garlic flavor that this sauce imparts to your dishes.
