Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the spaghetti. Add salt to the water if desired.
- Heat a large deep skillet over low heat and add the olive oil, garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for about five minutes, then add 3/4 cup of the water the pasta has been boiling in, along with the lemon juice and the heavy cream, to the skillet. Increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until the sauce begins to thicken a bit. Add the lemon zest and half of the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the sauce. Remove the skillet from the heat and, using tongs, toss the pasta with the sauce for a minute or two until the pasta begins to soak the sauce.
- Top with the remaining cheese and parsley. Serve.

[email protected]Not a fan. The lemon flavor was overwhelming and the sauce was too thin. I ended up adding more cream and Parmesan cheese to make it more palatable. I wouldn't make this again.

[email protected]Easy and delicious! I made this for a quick weeknight dinner and it was a success. The lemon flavor was subtle and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I added some grilled chicken to the pasta for extra protein. Yum!

[email protected]Meh. This recipe was just okay. The lemon flavor was a bit too strong for my taste, and the sauce was a little too thin. I also found that the spaghetti noodles were overcooked. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

[email protected]This lemon spaghetti was a hit with my family! The bright lemon flavor was perfectly balanced by the creamy sauce and salty Parmesan cheese. I added a bit of red pepper flakes for a little kick, and it was delicious. The recipe was easy to follow and
