2 1/2 cups milk
3 cubes chicken bouillon
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt

1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Heat butter and olive oil together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until tender but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add milk, bouillon, oregano, salt, and pepper to onion mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook sauce for 5 minutes.
