I don't know about you. Half a cup of sauce is not enough. I changed the serving to 3. Great and easy to make. I did not use the capers.

This was surprisingly good. I followed the recipe exactly and the only thing I would change is I would use 1/2 less capers. The capers over powered the other delicate flavors. Also, I would use three garlic cloves instead of one. I was looking for a recipe with the few ingredients I had on hand and this was really good and so simple. (I did use dried parsley and chopped tomatoes, not whole.) It only took 15 minutes from start to finish, hardly any prep!
