Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta in salted water just until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water before draining it.
  2. While the pasta cooks, add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, swirl the oil to coat the bottom. Add in the onion, brussels sprouts, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and caramelized, about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Add the pasta, ricotta, parmesan, lemon zest, lemon juice, and about 1/2 cup of the pasta water to the skillet. Stir everything together until a sauce forms. Add additional pasta water as needed to thin out the sauce. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if needed. Top with extra shredded parmesan cheese if desired.
