Lime-Mint BBQ Sauce
If you love the flavor of Lime and Mint then this Lime-Mint BBQ Sauce Recipe will freshen up your next day of grilling! If you are really big into the mint, here's a great recipe for a mint flavored margarita to go with this dish as a drink. It's a great combination for a hot summer day while grilling on the deck. The mint adds a nice freshness to the sauce as well as to margaritas. This recipe is not as much of a traditional barbecue sauce as it is a grilling or marinade sauce but I couldn't resist adding it as Limes are my favorite of the citrus fruits to use in cooking.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup minced green onions
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup minced celery
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 1/2 cup brewed mint tea
- 1 tablespoon prepared brown mustard
Directions:
In a heavy saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for a couple of minutes, until the onion is softened.
Mix in the remaining ingredients, reduce the heat to low, and cook the mixture until it reduces by about half, approximately 40 minutes. Stir frequently.
Serve the sauce warm or chilled. It keeps, refrigerated, for a couple of weeks.
