Step 1

Boil the pasta as per the direction on the back of the box. The noodles need to be al dente, which takes around 8 minutes.

Step 2

While the pasta noodles cook, prepare the lemon sauce. Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic salt, and pepper using a small mixing bowl. Set it aside.

Step 3

Drain the pasta. Pour the pasta into a colander, and return it to the stock pot.

Step 4

Add the lemon dressing, Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 cup of fresh basil to the spaghetti and stir to combine.

Step 5

Before serving, garnish each plate with the remaining basil, and enjoy!
