Bring a pot of water to a boil and add plenty of salt.

While the pasta is cooking, mix 2 cloves of pressed garlic with Spanish olive oil in a pan over medium heat for about 20 seconds, then turn off the heat.

Drain the pasta and add it directly to the pan with the garlic oil, gently mixing to coat the pasta.

In a separate bowl, whisk together lemon juice, salt, and pepper until the salt dissolves.

Add chopped parsley, basil, and mint to the bowl and mix well to create a dressing.

Pour the herb mixture over the pasta and toss everything together until well combined.

Grate lemon zest over the pasta salad and toss again to incorporate.
