This Pasta Limone is one of my favorite pasta dishes. If you’ve been to Lil’ Frankie’s in NYC’s East Village Dinner — Lil’ Frankie’s (lilfrankies.com), you’ve probably tried their iconic Spaghetti Limone. This recipe is by Frank Prisinzano and after making it, you will quickly understand how it came to be such a famous dish. This pasta is on repeat at my home—it’s easy, quick, and uses just a few basic ingredients that you probably already have on hand.
This recipe has always reminded me of the OG Italian “Alfredo” which simply consists of butter, Parmigiano, and pasta water. It’s called “pasta al burro” and it’s the same concept as pasta limone, minus the lemons. The addition of lemons in this dish make me feel as if I am sitting on the coast of Positano with a glass of wine in hand.
This recipe uses only lemon juice, salt, butter, and pasta water (the liquid gold that binds everything together). It takes 15 minutes from start to finish, and what’s better than a speedy fast meal!
Although I am giving you ingredient measurements, I suggest you measure everything with your heart, and add the amounts that suit your personal taste.
INGREDIENTS
salt
350 grams (3/4 pound) spaghetti (or pasta shape of choice)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes (preferably grass-fed)
juice of 2 lemons
freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano (parmesan) to taste, grated on the finest side of the box grater (use a high-quality block of Parmigiano)
