Lemon Garlic Spaghetti

Preparación

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole wheat spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

3. 3

   Add the lemon zest and juice to the skillet, stirring to combine with the garlic and oil.

4. 4

   Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet and toss to coat in the lemon-garlic oil. If the pasta seems dry, add a splash of the reserved pasta water.

5. 5

   Stir in the chopped parsley and half of the grated parmesan cheese. Season with black pepper and salt to taste.

6. 6

   Serve immediately, topped with the remaining parmesan cheese and extra parsley if desired.
