Spaghetti with a twist .... a twist of lemon and Parmesan cheese that is! This recipe comes courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis of the Food Network. It is so good. I've made this several times and it is always a hit.

- 2/3 cup olive oil shopping list
- 2/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated shopping list
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons) shopping list
- salt and freshly ground pepper shopping list
- 1 Tbsp lemon zest shopping list
- 1/3 cup chopped basil leaves shopping list
How to make it
- Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water , stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the oil, Parmesan, and lemon juice in a large bowl.
- Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup cooling liquid.
- Toss pasta with the lemon sauce and the reserved cooking liquid, adding 1/4 of a cup at a time as needed to moisten.
- Season with salt and pepper .
- Garnish with lemon zest and chopped basil.
