20 minutes total
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup kosher salt
  • 1 lemon, for zest/juice
  • 4 oz pecorino Romano cheese (+ more, optional for serving)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill (+ more, optional for serving)
  • 8 oz linguine (or fettucine) pasta
  • 2 tablespoons garlic-herb butter
  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
Steps
  1. Bring water to a boil for pasta, then add salt. Zest lemon (1 teaspoon), then juice (1 tablespoon). Grate cheese (about 1 cup). Chop dill finely.
  2. Add pasta to boiling water and cook following package instructions; drain, reserving ¼ cup cooking water.
  3. Meanwhile, preheat large sauté pan on medium-low 2–3 minutes. Place butter and cream in pan; cook and stir until butter melts. Stir in lemon juice and zest, dill, and reserved pasta water; simmer 2 minutes. Stir in cheese, in batches, until cheese melts and sauce thickens. Add pasta to pan and stir to coat with sauce. Sprinkle with pepper and additional cheese and chopped dill, if using.
