    How to Make Lemon-Garlic Pasta with Parsley and Pecorino

    1. Garlic Oil Infusion

    In a 12-inch skillet, combine the olive oil, sliced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Place the skillet over medium heat, letting the flavors meld until the garlic is lightly golden and fragrant, approximately 2 to 4 minutes.

    2. Pasta Toss

    Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with the reserved ½ cup of pasta cooking water. Toss everything together to coat the pasta evenly with the garlicky oil.

    3. Final Touch

    Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice, mixing well. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and black pepper according to your taste.

    4. Serve

    Plate the pasta while it's warm. Offer grated Pecorino Romano cheese alongside for guests to sprinkle over their servings as desired.
