I was serving 15 people. This was a delicious recipe, but maybe a little too lemony for my taste. As a disclaimer, I was a little crazed in the kitchen making all of these dishes at once, so it very well could be my fault…maybe I added too much lemon juice! :) As I was tasting, I added a little cream to cut down on the lemon and thicken the sauce a bit. It was great. Thanks for sharing!

My Uncle Larry gave me this recipe and it’s always been a family favorite.

Rainne, your variations sound delicious! I too love to make little adjustments according to what I’ve got in the fridge or pantry

I also added diced bell peppers and sliced mushrooms at the same stage as the onions. Then I decided there wasn’t enough sauce (as I was going to serve it over noodles), so I added about a cup of whole milk, then sprinkled it with a few tablespoons of white flour to thicken it slightly.

It was DELICIOUS, and a huge hit with the whole family. It had a very scampi-esque flavor, with the butter, lemon juice, and garlic, but the sauce was thicker and stuck to the noodles better.

I love modifying recipes to fit what I have on hand!

Thanks for sharing this recipe! I fixed this for my family tonight and it was a big hit. I was told to not only keep this in my box but next time fix a double batch so there will be leftovers.
