How to Make White Wine Lemon Caper Sauce
  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, bring 1 cup of white wine and ¼ cup of lemon juice to a boil. Stir occasionally to ensure even heating and to develop those flavorful aromas.
  2. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of heavy cream. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes, thickening slightly while becoming beautifully creamy and fragrant.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 cup of freshly grated parmesan and 2 tablespoons of capers. Make sure everything is well combined for a rich and savory sauce.
  4. Toss the sauce with your favorite pasta or vegetables, or drizzle it generously over chicken or fish. Watch as your dish transforms into something truly special!
