For an extra touch of richness, add a small pat of butter to the skillet along with the olive oil. Fresh herbs can be substituted for dried, using approximately 1 tablespoon of each, finely chopped. Reduce the salt slightly if using fresh herbs. A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese after cooking elevates the dish further Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the herb mixture for a subtle kick.

Nov 22, 2024Be careful not to overcook them, as someone mentioned. They can get mushy easily if you aren't watching them. I found 4 minutes to be perfect.
