Fiery Lemon Pasta Side Dish

Great side dish, light and lemony, with a slight bit of heat that gives it a punch. I saw this made on everyday italian and immediately gave it a try. This was a big hit with my family. Great with fish or chicken.

Steps

While your pasta is cooking , set out a large heatsafe serving dish and add chili oil and parsley.
Zest the lemon directly over the bowl.
Squueze juice of lemon into the mixture.
Mix this together with a fork , then add your hot pasta.
Add about 1 / 2-1 ladeful of the pasta cooking liquid to the bowl , toss to coat.
Add the cheese , enough to make a nice layer over the top of the dish.
Toss to coat.
Season generously to taste with salt , pepper , and chili flakes.
Garnish with a bit of reserved parsley , and serve to accompany fish or chicken , with some additional cheese and chili flakes on the side to allow guests to add as they prefer.
