How to Make Sauteed Strawberries With A Twist

  1. In a medium skillet, combine 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of butter, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the butter melts and the mixture begins to bubble.
  2. Gently add 1 pint of fresh strawberries, sliced in half. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften slightly and release their juices. Be careful not to overcook; you want them to retain a bit of their texture.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
