4-6 Servings
30 min

I love a one skillet meal! This lemony, tarragon, basil, dijon mustard, white wine, and caper sauce will have you reaching for crusty bread to dip-dip swim and savor. Adding a little Frenchy vibe today with this simple one pan meal. Don't let the fancy name fool you. This is a 30 minute meal! I like to serve with rice, bread, and a simple side salad. It's perfect enough to add in your weekly rotation of meals and to serve at a nice dinner party. You will wow your family and guests with this simply delicious and easy meal!


Made with Amore,
