Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, lightly smashed
2 zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced into half-moons
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
12 ounces fresh fettuccine
Finely grated zest of 2 lemons, plus juice of 1 lemon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat the olive oil and garlic in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook until the garlic is golden brown; discard the garlic. Add the zucchini to the garlic oil; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the zucchini is crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the poppy seeds and remove from the heat.
  • Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the pasta, 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water, the lemon zest, butter and parmesan; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and toss to combine. Add the remaining 1/2 cup cooking water and the lemon juice and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 1 minute (the pasta will continue to absorb the sauce as it sits). Divide among bowls.

I've tried several lemon poppy seed pasta recipes and this one is by far the best. The sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the poppy seeds add a nice crunch.
