For the Sauce
  • 1 cup dry white wine Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio can be substituted.
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice For best flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, combine the dry white wine and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Bring to a gentle boil for about 2-3 minutes to reduce alcohol.
  2. Lower the heat and gradually stir in heavy cream, allowing it to simmer for 5 minutes until thickened slightly.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese and capers, mixing until cheese melts and is evenly distributed.
  4. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary, balancing flavors from cheese and capers.
  5. Serve the sauce warm over grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, or pasta.
