I love this recipe! It was really delicious and quick & easy to make. My only complaint would be that it was a little bland-nothing that can’t be easily fixed..
I agree with Erin. This is a fantastic base dish but needed “something else” even after I added a touch of salt and pepper. Garlic, maybe? Chili pepper flakes?
My family loved this recipe. Don’t understand the bland comments of other comments. My husband does not usually like feta cheese or artichokes but really liked this combination. The fresh basil might be the difference. Also I made sure I allowed the cream hit the bottom of the skillet so all the good spices off the bottom of the pan were mixed into the sauce.
