    This sauce turned out great! I did a few things different though. First, I sauteed mushrooms in olive oil with some salt and pepper. Then I added the minced shallots, wine, garlic, and the juice from 3 lemons instead of putting the lemons in whole. I let that cook for about 3 minutes, then added the hot sauce(siracha, worcestershire, and salt and pepper. I let that cook for 3 minutes then added a tablespoon of flour to thicken it up some. Then added the cream, and then the butter. It was very lemony, but after all it is called "Lemon Butter Sauce"!

    I followed this recipe to the T and it was way too acidic. I had to throw out dinner. I tried to improvise but 3 lemons was way too overpowering. I'm not sure if it was because I cooked the lemon like the recipe calls for instead of squeezing the fresh lemon. I was very disappointed.

    This sauce is so good you'll want to lick the spoon clean and finish off the rest of the sauce sans any fish. I prepared this to accompany grilled halibut and it was the perfect complement to the halibut. Even my picky husband and hard-to-please 21 y.o. son thought it was delicious. I followed Emeril's recipe to the "t" and it turned out perfect. I think it would also taste great on salmon or grilled shrimp. Maybe even on veggies. It's so good, you could serve it alone!

    Wonderful! Used non-fat milk and only 1 stick of butter, 2 lemons and it was utterly delicious.

    I love this sauce! Made it for a salmon dish and it was wonderful. I wish I had this recipe when I was making steamed mussels. Emeril's recipes provide so much flavor. I would have never thought of putting Worchestershire in a lemon butter sauce, but it was awesome. Next time I make this recipe, I will probably squeeze the lemons too.

    Amazing....a definite for fish, chicken or even veggies. Great lemon flavor and very easy to make. Definitely tastes like a 5-star restaurant sauce.

    I made this sauce to serve with salmon. It was delicious! I used only the lemon juice (small lemons not the whole peeled lemon and I did not strain the sauce. This sauce will go well with either fish or chicken. My family and friends really loved it!

    This sauce is the BOMB!!!! OMG!! We just finished having dinner, I made this sauce with chicken, my family loved it! Even my picky daughter loved it! We could have just ate the sauce with a spoon! I followed the advice of another reviewer and just added fresh lemon juice (about 2 medium lemons and it was perfect! Not too overpowering and not too weak. Next time I'm making this sauce with shrimp! ooooooooooo....
