This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Garlic? Check. Butter? Check. No shopping required! This simple sauce will have you wondering why you ever went for regular butter when making seafood and pasta. Also try it as a dipping sauce to compliment fresh bread!

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, crushed
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until the garlic begins to soften.
Remove the pan from the heat and let sit until it is at room temperature.
Strain the butter through a sieve before using.
Use as a baste on fish, seafood, or vegetables before grilling or as a sauce.

I sauteed the garlic in the butter just to soften it not brown it then let the mixture cool and then I strained it. I also used salted butter so I wouldn't have to add more salt while cooking. I brushed this on a whole chicken I was roasting in the oven. It made the skin crisp and super flavorful.
