Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 3-4
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 lemons, zest of, finely chopped, no pith, just the yellow part
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, plus more for the table

Recipe

• in a large skillet, bring the cream and butter to a boil over medium-high heat.
• add the lemon juice and the zest and reduce the volume by almost half.
• remove from heat.
• have your cooked and drained pasta (i like fettucine for this one -- ) ready to go.
• add the pasta to your skillet with the sauce and toss to coat over medium heat.
• add the cheese and toss for a few more seconds.
• serve with additional cheese.
• note: marcella calls for the zest of 4 (!) lemons, but i thought it a bit over the top -- just me.
