    How to Make Lemony Herb Pasta with Peas

    1. Prepare the Herb Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped fresh herbs, lemon zest, minced garlic, lemon juice, and extra virgin olive oil. Mix well to form a vibrant herb mixture.

    2. Cook the Pasta and Peas

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until just shy of al dente. A few moments before the pasta is done, add the thawed peas to the water. Reserve a cup of the pasta water before draining.

    3. Combine and Serve

    Drain the pasta and peas, return them to the pot or transfer to a serving bowl, pour over the herb mixture, and sprinkle with freshly grated cheese. Toss gently, adding reserved pasta water as needed to reach a glossy consistency. Serve immediately.
