"Fantastic recipe! Love the fact that it is not overly lemon-ie.
I paired this with your "herbed basmai rice" (perfect match).
The sauce under the chicken was divine. I not only used it to drizzle on the chicken but decided at last minute to use it as a warm dressing on fresh spinach with chopped candied pecans.
This recipe is now a permenant part of our collection and will be made for guests. Thanks Ina "

"We loved this soup! I used 2 cans of diced tomatoes instead of using the peppers and it was phenominal. I do think next time I am going to roast a batch of tomatoes and then only use 1 can of fire roasted tomatoes. The only thing I can think of is that the basil should be finely chopped before throwing in because the stick blender did not chop or blend it properly (in the show they just threw it in). we paired our soup with panini's made with pesto, smoked turkey and fresh mozzarella cheese (used my George Forman grill to make sandwiches and just buttered the outside of the bread like you would a grill cheese) and it was an awesome match!"

"FANTASTIC! One of those moments where I wish I was not a lady and could share the adjectives my husband used to describe it. I made this along with your baked shrimp scampi recipe, for our daughters 12th birthday dinner since she was having a party with cake and ice cream the following weekend. She went bonkers and I wish I had counted how many times I heard "Thank you" LOL
I did omit the liqueur and used vanilla extract instead of the bean.
Due to richness, I am going to save this for special occasions; the best part is my husbands birthday is next month."

"For the guest at my daughters 12th birthday (slumber party breakfast I made these scones, paired with a simple homemade blueberry jam, along with your recipe for candied sausage, and scrambled eggs w/ fresh basil. The kids raved (my hubby and I too), all had seconds, one even asked for the recipe to take home for their parent to make them, and they all asked if they could move in. The scones were not only easy, simple, and light, but absolutely scrumptious! I did use raw sugar from Maui on the top instead of the sugar in the raw. I do not own a food processor but was totally doable and easy to do by hand. This recipe is now part of our permanent family menu and have them on the menu this next week. "
