How to Make Lime Cilantro Butter Shallot Butter
- In a medium bowl, soften 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter at room temperature.
- Zest 1 lime and finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh cilantro. Finely mince 2 shallots.
- Add the lime zest, cilantro, and shallots to the softened butter.
- Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until well combined and evenly distributed.
- Line a small loaf pan (approximately 5x3 inches) with plastic wrap, leaving some overhang on the sides.
- Pour the butter mixture into the prepared loaf pan, and gently press to form a compact log.
- Fold the plastic wrap over the butter log and twist the ends tightly to seal.
- Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Once frozen, slice into medallions and serve atop your favorite grilled, baked, or pan-seared fish.
