1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium-size clove garlic, minced
1 (8-ounce) package medium-size bowties

1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

This dish was a disappointment. The sauce was bland and the pasta was overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

A bit too lemony for my taste, but still a good recipe. I'll try using less lemon next time.

This dish was easy to make and turned out delicious. I used fresh basil from my garden, and it really made a difference. My husband and I both loved it!

I'm not usually a fan of bowtie pasta, but this dish changed my mind. The sauce was light and flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly.

This pasta dish was a hit with my family! The lemon and basil flavors were perfectly balanced, and the bowties cooked al dente. I will definitely be making this again.
