Lemon Pasta
- 1/2 pounds Spaghetti, Cooked To Al Dente
- 1/2 cups Reserved Pasta Water, Or More As Needed
- 3 Tablespoons Butter, Divided
- 4 cloves Garlic, Peeled, Thinly Sliced
- 1 pinch Crushed Red Pepper

- Cook pasta to al dente, following package directions.
- Reserve some of the pasta water.
- Preheat a large pan to medium heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the butter, garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes, as much as youd like!
- Stir for 3 minutes until the garlic is soft and fragrant and the butter is foamy but not brown.
- Add the wine, and let reduce by half, about 90 seconds or so.
- Add the lemon slices, pasta water, and chicken stock, if using (you can also just use an equal amount of additional pasta water).
- Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes, adjusting heat accordingly so the sauce is bubbling but not fully boiling.
- Add the cooked pasta, remaining butter, half the herbs, and half the cheese to the sauce.
- Toss together with tongs and taste for seasoning.
- Add more salt if youd like to!
- Serve with the rest of the herbs and the rest of the cheese as toppings.
- Relish in the citrus.
