If I could give more than 5 stars, I would....this is sooo easy and so,so,so good. I can't think why some people didn't like it. Only thing I changed was not chopping basil and a sharper fresh grated cheese. This really tastes gourmet..Caution! don't use sub-par ingredients! Maybe that's why people didn't enjoy! Thanks, Marilyn!

This recipe was delicious! I followed the others who sauteed the oil/garlic/basil first. My family scoffed as I was cooking it, but they all loved it, especially my children who don't like traditional spaghetti sauce. This is one that I will save in my files!

This was a fast and easy recipe. I didn't have enough basil, maybe 1/2 cup, and it was plenty. I threw in some dried minced onion and more garlic. Next time I'll saute the garlic, butter and olive oil. It was really good and I'll probably make it again (nice change from spaghetti sauce)!

This recipe was great! I did alter it a bit though. I added more garlic than the recipie called for and I sauted half of and and left the rest fresh. I also added a half a tablespoon of fresh lime juice and it gave it just the kick it was missing.

This was very good, very fresh tasting. All that basil gave this a crisp taste, as in bright and fresh. I only used half the basil called for and it was plenty. I did warm the olive oil/butter and the garlic before adding it to the pasta. Very good.

This was such a good, quick, light sauce recipe (used linguine instead). However, I added Portuguese pre-cooked spicy sausage & heated it in the oil/butter for 2-3 mins. I sauteed the minced garlic at the end of browning the sausage, to get lightly golden in the oil/butter before adding the hot pasta to the pan. Followed other reviewers, with adding a little more Parm cheese & red pepper flakes to taste. This recipe is a keeper!

Mmmmm! Was great! At first it was a little lack luster but then I add some more cheese, I'd say about a 1/4 a cup more, halved grape tomatoes, sliced grilled chicken, (depending on the length) quartered, just warmed (on the grill) asparagus, and that was very good!

I just finished this and sat down to a plate of it with a little salad and frankly couldn't finish without reviewing it. This is one of the best dishes I have prepared and I will definitely be keeping this recipe on hand. I am a single person and it makes enough for me to keep on hand for a few days. The flavor is fabulous and it was quick, easy, and cheap. I added a bit of red pepper flackes while I was melting the butter and also threw everything else in and let it simmer to really release the flavor and then tossed it all together, it came out quite nice.

The basil was overpowering and was virtually the only flavor we could taste. We won't do this one again.

I made this for my family and they all loved it. The only thing I did differently was saute the garlic, then mixed with pasta. Still keeping on warm heat, adding other ingredients. I also mixed some of the cheese in to melt, once served, topped it with remaining cheese. Great recipe, especially if you have picky eaters who don't like a lot of veggies.
