Reviews
I used organic lemons which tend to be smaller; so juice and zest of two was PERFECT. Thanks Ree. -@EverydayWinns
Zest AND juice of 2 lemons? This was way too lemony for us. And my husband is obsessed with lemon. I should’ve gone with my gut instinct when I was adding it… seemed too much at the time. I’ll make again with that adjustment.
Delish! Came out great the first time and the fam loved it! Thanks
Found this to be too bitter so added a tbsp of sugar to the mix before serving and really enjoyed the result.
My husband loved this recipe, says he loved it. It was so good and easy to make.
OMG!!! So So Good! Was great with steak and potatoes. Just the right amount of lemon just brightened it up.
lemony broccolini was light and bright. great pairing with such a rich heavy meal.
