Ingredients
1 lb package spaghetti
4 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

1 cup frozen peas, thawed
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and toss to keep from sticking together. Set a timer for 7 minutes.
Melt butter in a large saucepan. Once melted, add heavy cream and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
Turn heat to high and simmer for 2-4 minutes, then stir in the peas, garlic, Parmesan, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
Drain pasta (reserving a tablespoon of pasta water to thin sauce if too thick) add it to the pan and toss with the sauce. Serve immediately.
Top with more Parmesan before serving, if desired.
