Combine & serve
5
With tongs, transfer the cooked spaghetti to the pan (some pasta water is good). Using a Microplane, zest about a quarter of the lemon skin over the pasta. Add in a squeeze of lemon juice along with the butter and parsley and toss until the sauce is emulsified and the pasta is well coated. Add a splash more pasta water if necessary, and adjust the seasoning with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Serve warm with more parsley and lemon wedges.
