    I accidentally burned the garlic the first time, so definitely watch it closely! The second time was perfect.

    I added a little lime juice at the end, as suggested, and it was amazing! Will definitely be making this again.

    My family loved this! I served it over linguine with a side salad.

  • Tanya Kuhn

    The tequila flavor is quite strong, so maybe start with less if you're not a big fan. I used reposado tequila which I think contributed to the flavor profile.
