Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cloves minced garlic
  • 1 White onion
  • 4 cups Broth, chicken, or seafood
  • 1 tablespoon Oregano or marjoram (dried)
  • 2 sticks Salted butter
  • 2 sticks Unsalted butter
  • 1/2 Lemon squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Six pepper blend
  • 1 tablespoon Creole or Cajun seasoning
  • ½ tablespoon Old bay mix
  • 1 tablespoon Paprika
  • 3 tablespoon Onion powder
  • 2 tablespoon Garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • The first step is to blend the butter, onions, and garlic in a food processor until they are smooth and silky. Slowly work through them on low power.
  • In a saucepan, heat them over medium heat. Turn the heat down to low and simmer the sauce with all the spices and seasonings.
  • The mixture should be stirred frequently until it thickens and darkens a little bit. Add the chicken or bouillon broth now.
  • Keep simmering at a low temperature. In sauces, that's the best way to bring the spices and flavors together.
  • If you want to add Tabasco, you can do so, but it's perfectly fine if you don't.
  • Then cook it for another 20-25 minutes.
  • When it's finished, you can pour it over anything or cook meat, fish, or crab in it.
  • In case the sauce is too watery, you can thicken it with cornstarch.
