Mustard and Lemon Sauce

Mustard and Lemon Sauce is one of my go to recipes when I’m cooking fish. This lovely recipe uses Dijon mustard with chicken stock/broth and lemon juice to create a silky tasty sauce. This also works really well with vegetables. Alternatively add shallots to this sauce and it was amazing with beef.
