This is so EASY and good!!! Great to use up some of that fresh basil from the garden!!!! I sometimes do it in the saute pan and put over pasta - may have to add a little more butter and olive oil. I always add more garlic and some hot pepper flakes!!! I have also added some shredded carrots and snow peas to it also if doing in saute pan - also freshly grated parm cheese for over the pasta!!!!
