Fresh pasta with fresh citrus and sharp peppery flavor covered in a lemon-pepper alfredo sauce. I ate myself silly.
Bring a large pot of water to boil. When the water is boiling, add 1 Tablespoon of salt along with the pasta to the pot. Stir well. Cook according to package directions or for about 6-7 minutes if you are using fresh pasta (until al dente).
Put the butter and cream in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until the cream has reduced almost by half. Add the nutmeg, lemon zest, black pepper, and salt, to taste. Stir to combine and set aside.
When pasta is finished cooking, drain and add to the sauce in the skillet. Add cheese and toss to coat pasta in sauce and cheese. Check seasonings and add more salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.
Notes: Using fresh ingredients ensures the best flavors in this dish (as with any dish!). Try to use fresh cheese and a real lemon (as opposed to dried lemon peel).

Yum! I love a simple pasta dish! I’ll have to make this tomorrow after my long run so I don’t have to feel guilty about eating the whole thing! Congrats about being a contributor too! Way to go, Nat!
