Feel free to add an extra protein (chicken, shrimp, sausage) or some extra veggies if you'd like too. | gimmesomeoven.com] Fresh basil is back in season and I vote we celebrate with this lemon basil butter pasta! ♡ Our family fell in love with [Ali Slagle’s viral basil-butter pasta]( last fall, which is a deliciously basil-forward, nut-free, and buttery alternative to traditional [basil pesto pasta](. She had the brilliant idea to blitz blanched basil with butter in a food processor (which you should definitely double to have leftovers for later!), which is then melted into a batch of hot pasta for a quick and easy 3-ingredient meal. The creamy, salty, melted butter serves as the perfect saucy vehicle for the fragrant peppery flavor of fresh basil, and perfectly coats each strand of pasta. And while it’s easy to make the basil butter in the amount of time it takes to cook the pasta, you can also prep the basil butter in advance if you’d like to make dinnertime an absolute breeze.
