    I used a different type of cheese because I didn't have parmesan on hand, but this still turned out amazing!

  • Adriel Tromp

    I love this recipe. For those of you who can't find tarragon, dill works really well as a substitute!

  • Terrance Larkinleannon

    The lemon zest and cayenne pepper add such a lovely brightness and subtle kick. I'll definitely be making this again!
