I was not crazy about this one. The alcohol did not burn off like I thought it would. I would probs pass on the vodka next time.

This is an easy version and quick. I have young grandchildren and they eat this even with the vodka, just add the vodka after sautéing the shallots to deglaze the pan, the alcohol evaporates right away. It's the same as using red or white wine in dishes out there. I bet almost everyone makes chicken, seafood, sauce etc, with wines in the cooking process and serve it to the kids, so why not this????

Love this! Easy to make, no issues. Sauce was a little thinner than I would have liked, but the flavor was there. Next time, I may add less pasta water. Will definitely make again. Like the small kick of heat from the red pepper flake. No other complaints here.

Way too much vodka. Maybe use half of the suggested amount and let simmer for well over 15 minutes. All I can taste is alcohol!

Very tasty, I followed the recipe for the most part but when i got to the red onion I added in a whole onion which I believe made it more savory which I love and when it was time for the basil I added a lot more than it called for because I love basil so I couldn't go wrong there. As for the cheese , I feel that what ever type of cheese you put in that's the after taste that your left with and sometimes that can make or brake a dish. I put in pecorino ramono parmigiana cheese and I love that cheese so I didn't mind the after taste, but be careful what cheese you put in. Also when it was time for the cream, i put in mimic cream which is thickened almond milk which has a better taste in cooking( my opinion. Over all the dish was great and I would definitely make it again!!

Pretty tasty.. followed the recipe as it calls for the most part, but I did add in more fresh basil (can't go wrong there! I also cooked up some shrimp and served that with the pasta. I think some type of meat of seafood helps spruce this dish up, but it would be fine without it. My take away was that it was not a heavy dish nor was the sauce overbearing. It was delicious and one that I will make again!
