Jalapeno Citrus Butter Recipe: The very best homemade butter
My mate gave me a link to a YouTube Chef, and really good he is. Well worth a look. Check out – ‘Sam The Cooking Guy‘. I was watching one of his recipes and it gave me some inspiration to come up with this little recipe. Jalapeno Citrus Butter, which can be made in advance or on the day of cooking.
You could use this on beef, lamb, pork, chicken, or any fish to be honest. It is so versatile. You’ll see from the below that I was not making this for a specific meal today, I was just making the butter for use at a later stage, as the beauty of this is that you can freeze it and use it whenever you want. I was making this for the up-and-coming ChillaxBBQ Chef Table on a Bum Boat and it will be used for a beefsteak.

Here is the Jalapeno Citrus Butter Recipe: Best Homemade Butter Recipe, and some...
1 packet of salted butter – let it sit to room temperature so it is soft;
- 1 Jalapeno pepper;
- 1 packet of coriander;
- Sea salt & cracked black pepper;
- 4 Tbsp lime juice; and
- 4 Tbsp Avocado Oil.
Follow the simple steps for Jalapeno Citrus Butter;
- Put the softened butter in a bowl;
- Cut the Jalapeno pepper in half and de-seed it. Chop it super fine so no large lumps and add into the bowl;
- Finely chop the coriander and add to the bowl;
- Add in the lime juice and Avocado Oil;
- Give a really good pinch or two of sea salt and cracked Kampot black pepper;
- Stir it all through thoroughly to make sure it is well-mixed and even.
So how am I going to use the butter in the future for ChillaxBBQ. As I said, you can freeze it. So I simply scooped it out of the bowl into a zip-lock bag. I . then flattened it out and popped it straight into the freezer. When it comes to the day get her out of the freezer and out of the bag. Hey presto, you have fresh Jalapeno Citrus Butter.
You can coat this onto the steak, as above, (or other meat, fish, or fowl) ahead of time to allow it to marinade, reverse sear low and slow, and then get it over the coals to char it all up. You can also continually baste the steak with it during the charring process to intensify the flavour.
Finally, you could use the Jalapeno Citrus Butter to pop on top of the cooked steak so it melts and drizzles all over giving it a super tasty and glossy finish. And that folks, is exactly what I will be doing with this for the next ChillaxBBQ.
