"This recipe is so delectable that I'm often asked to double it when family members visit over the holidays, writes Janet Lebar from her home in Littleton, Colorado. She also suggests preparing it with shrimp for a quick convenient alternative that's also delicious."

This was pretty good. I did add some fresh basil and oregano (about 1/2 tsp of each) when I added the tomatoes. One change I would make is to add the green onions when you add the tomatoes also, mine burned before the dish was finished. Thanks for sharing!

There was not enough flavor and the green oinions ended up getting burned.

This was a good recipe, although I thought it ended up just a bit too oily for my taste. I added parmesan to the sauce to thicken it a bit. I also added fresh oregano and red pepper flakes when I added the tomatoes, etc., that gave it a wonderful kick.
