Linguine with Meyer Lemon Cream and Chives

I’m still on a lemon kick and apparently, a pasta kick as well. Basically, I want fresh flavors but I also want to appease the masses at the dinner table. Some night I would throw anything down on the table if everyone would eat it without complaint. While this recipe didn’t get the entire family’s approval I really enjoyed it. It wasn’t that no one disliked it, I just didn’t receive the “You have to make this again soon” comments.
What I love about this pasta dish is that it can be whipped up in no time and is light, with plenty of flavor. I’ve never used chives with pasta before, but I really loved the way they complimented the lemon and will definitely be experimenting with those again.
*Since Myer lemons are only in season for a short time, use regular lemons but be sure to add a splash of orange juice to tone down the citrus.
