This was indeed very fast to put together and had nice flavor. As another reviewer suggested, I added a pinch of red pepper flakes but other than that made it just as directed. I found it to be pretty oily though. Next time I would probably reduce the olive oil by maybe half (especially since you add 4 Tablespoons of additional butter)!Reply
