New Orleans Pasta Special

Several years ago one of my favorite lunch spots closed. It was called Kiki's Bon Maison (or something like that). They made this amazing cajun pasta dish & I was lucky enough to get my hands on the recipe. It's certainly not figure-friendly, so I only make it once every couple years. I was craving it yesterday, so figured it was time to break it out again! Rough recipe for the sauce (halved): 1/2 C Olive Oil, 4 T Butter, 3 cloves garlic, 1 tsp each of paprika, basil, oregano, salt, black pepper & cayenne, 1 T lemon juice. Combine & heat over low. Serve over linguine with chicken/shrimp mushrooms, pimentos, parsley & grated parmesan. Soooo good.
