Ingredients

Servings
  • 5-6 oz pasta I think a strand pasta works best here, I used spaghetti
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts don't skimp
  • 1/2 cup parsley leaves
  • lemon juice fresh, squeeze of
  • Parmesan Cheese shavings
  • black pepper fresh cracked
  • lemon zest optional, finely shredded, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Put the oil and pine nuts in a small skillet. Heat the oil and nuts. stirring constantly, until the nuts turn a nice deep brown. Don't walk away, they can burn quickly. If you feel it's getting too hot too fast, pull the pan up off the heat and continue to stir. You don't want high heat here--- low to medium is fine, and once the oil is hot the nuts will brown in just a minute or so.
  2. Cook the spaghetti in lots of salty water to just the al dente stage. You want it to be firm, not mushy.
  3. Drain the pasta and toss with about half of the oil and pine nuts, give it a good squeeze of lemon juice, add the parsley and several grinds of fresh black pepper.
  4. Divide the pasta between two bowls and top with the rest of the nuts and the shards of Parmesan. Add a little lemon zest if you want to be extra fancy.
