My roommate Matt made this first at school and I was lucky enough to taste it and it was delicious! I made it for my parents. It was the first meal I made since I was home after my junior year, they loved it too! I served it with linguine and we poured the chicken broth, lemon juice, flour mixture into the pasta. I added capers to it, I am not crazy about capers, next I will leave the out.
