Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb spaghettini or capellini
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Finely grated zest from 2 lemons
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water and drain pasta in a colander.

  • Toss pasta in sauce with parsley. (Add more cooking water if pasta seems dry.)

I'm not a big fan of lemon, but this dish was still really good. The garlic and butter sauce was delicious and the pasta was cooked perfectly.

I used whole wheat spaghetti and it worked out great. This is a healthy and delicious meal that I'll be making again and again.

I'm not a big fan of garlic, so I used half the amount called for in the recipe. It was still plenty flavorful.

I didn't have any lemon on hand, so I used lime instead. It worked out great and gave the dish a unique twist.
