DE-LISH! Although I used chicken broth instead and added some cooked chicken cubes to it. My family also likes a "little kick" to our dinner so i added some red pepper flakes to it the sauce and let it simmer for a few minutes before adding the chicken and tossing the pasta.

YUMMY! I was in love with it. I made the mistake of adding a bit of flour to cream to thicken it up, but I regretted doing it. Next time I make this Ill be following the directions EXACTLY. NOTHING needs to be changed. I made this recipe with angel hair pasta with grilled chicken and topped of with bacon crumbles and it was delicious! So glad I found this recipe!

I used 3 tbsp. butter and 1 tbsp. EVOO, fat-free half-n-half, omitted the lime zest (I didn't have any), and used low-sodium organic chicken broth. For the noodles, I used half the amount of noodles and used Hungry Girl's shirataki noodles (tofu noodles) and sauteed garlic, onion, zucchini and red pepper in the butter/EVOO in place of the other half of pasta I didn't use before adding the remaining ingredients. I also added 1/2 c. fresh parmesan right before serving. My kids and I thought this was fabulous but my husband didn't care for the noodles. If you aren't watching your calorie/carb intake, using a good whole wheat pasta would be excellent in this. He remarked on that the sauce was really good, just didn't care for the noodles. At the last minute, I folded my broccoli into my portion of pasta/sauce/noodles and was glad I did. Gosh, it was SO good. NOTE: If you use the shirataki noodles, make sure to rinse them really well before using them in this dish.

Super yummy and perfect with the Broiled Tilapia Parmesan recipe! The only thing I did different is I left out the heavy whipping cream and used Evaporated Milk to make it a little healthier. I did have to add some cornstarch to make the sauce thicker (make sure to mix the cornstarch with cold water) I also left out the lime zest. I topped with capers. It was so yummy and we will definantly make this again!

I did not like this sauce at all. There was WAY too much butter in it. It never thickened and got creamy, just greasy and runny. I tried to reduce the sauce enough to at least make it a little thicker and it made it worse; it was pretty much 1/2 butter 1/2 cream/broth with a lemony flavor. Bleh. I followed the instructions exactly except I used lemon zest instead of lime, but that wouldn't change the consistency, just the flavor. I fear for trying it again but who knows.
