Lemon Butter Pasta

My favorite pasta for lunch in the summer. So delicious. I make lemon pasta a couple of different ways but this is the easiest recipe for a quick lunch.

Ingredients:

1/2 box Angel Hair

1 stick salted butter

zest of one large lemon

juice of large lemon

optional - chopped parsley

salt and black pepper

Directions:

Quick Tip - Double the recipe for a dinner portion.

In a pot of generously salted water prepare your pasta. Typically for angel hair 2-3 minutes.

In a large skillet melt your butter on medium heat.

When melted zest one large lemon and add into the hot butter. Juice the same lemon and add into pan.

Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper then stir.

Using tongs add your cooked pasta into the sauce. A little pasta water is fine.

Stir for a bit then serve.

Add chopped parsley if you wish or a bit more Lemon zest.

ENJOY!
