For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes. Serve immediately over pasta, rice, or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is highly recommended for the best flavor. Adjust the amount of lemon-pepper seasoning to your preference. Start with less and add more after tasting if desired.
