Serves 2
Published in: Gourmet

1/4 pounds angel hair pasta or capellini
3/4 teaspoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons pine nuts -- toasted golden
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
1 1/4 cup minced flat-leaf parsley leaves
Salt and pepper to taste

Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil for pasta. In a small
saucepan, cook garlic in oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until
softened, and transfer mixture to a large bowl. Add pine nuts, crushing
them lightly with the back of a fork, lemon juice, zest, parsley, and
salt and pepper to taste. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente and,
reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water, drain well. Add pasta
with the reserved cooking water to bowl and toss with lemon mixture until
it is absorbed. Serve pasta warm or at room temperature.

Serves 2 as a side dish.
