This was so simple & amazing! I made it exactly as shown, with broth. Just delicous, I thought it would be good, but that doesn't even come close. Definitely make it!

I think the flavor of this recipe is better the next day! The only change I made was to cook the (dried) rosemary with the cream while waiting for it to thicken.

Our family loves this, especially my 3 picky boys. I do use more butter than called for and basically double the sauce.

This recipe was excellent-can't wait to make it again and triple the sauce! Thank-you hope to find some more recipes as good as this one.

We don't care much for rosemary so used fresh basil, wonderful! I used chicken broth instead of the wine & it was great over rice. I prepared the rice with chicken broth as well. Will surely make again. Thanks.

Enjoyed very much. Good flavored sauce. Come on folks, trailmom did say she was tickled when she read it was for "two". Let's not be so serious..Just enjoyed the offerings....
