Pasta con Langostinos al Ajo y Limón

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: pecorino cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and can provide a cheesy flavor.

Boil water in a large pot and add salt until it tastes like the sea.

Cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.

While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant and golden, about 2-3 minutes.

Stir in red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds.

Remove skillet from heat and add lemon juice and zest, stirring to combine.

Drain spaghetti, reserving a cup of pasta water.

Add drained spaghetti to the skillet with garlic oil.

Toss the pasta in the skillet, adding reserved pasta water as needed to create a light sauce.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Stir in chopped parsley and toss to combine.

Serve immediately, topped with grated parmesan cheese.
