Instructions
- In a large pot, bring 4 quarts water and 1 tablespoon salt to boil. Add fettuccine and cook until al dente, about 9 to 11 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and then drain well.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, heat butter and oil until melted and combined. Add onion, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Cook until softened, about 8 minutes.
- Stir in artichokes and sauté until heated through, about 3 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat.
- To a large serving bowl, add drained pasta, artichoke mixture, 1/2 cup reserved cooking liquid, and Parmesan cheese. Toss until combined, adding more liquid if needed to bring the sauce together. Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.
Notes
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Fettuccine: Or substitute linguini, spaghetti, or your other favorite pasta.
- Water: A little starchy pasta water helps bring the sauce together. If you're worried you might forget to reserve pasta cooking water (it happens to the best of us), put a measuring cup in your colander. That way, when you go to drain your pasta, you'll see the measuring cup and remember.
- Lemon: Zest the lemon before you juice it.
- Artichoke hearts: Use frozen artichoke hearts that have been thawed and drained well. Do not substitute canned artichoke hearts here.
- Yield: This recipe makes 6 generous servings.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
