Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain.
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and olive oil over medium heat until melted, about 1-2 minutes. Add garlic, sautéing for 30-60 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the white wine or broth, allowing it to simmer for 1-2 minutes to deglaze the pan.
- Stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and capers. Sauté for another minute to meld the flavors.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat with the sauce. Add reserved pasta water slowly until desired consistency is reached.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately, garnished with parsley.
