  1. Serves ~3 or 2 hungry adults:

    250g pasta, I used Liguori casarecce
    ~1 dl pasta water

    – 1 small onion chopped (I had red ones)
    – 2 cloves garlic grated
    – 1 generous handful of chopped
    – Peel of one lemon grated + squeezed juice
    – 60g parmeggiano, grated
    – 3-4 table spoons Olive oil
    ~300g chicken sliced into thin strips (I used breast)
    – salt, pepper, peperoncino flakes

    Boil pasta according to instructions / preference. While pasta is boiling saute chicken, onion, garlic in a large pan with olive oil. Add half of the grated lemon peel half way through sauteing, rest at the end of sauteing, before mixing in pasta. Season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes and the parsley. After pasta is ready cooking, add 1 dl of pasta water to the pan with the chicken and mix thoroughly to emulsify a bit. Mix in the grated parmesan and then the pasta and then the lemon juice before eating. Enjoy!!

    This is one of my favourite pastas ever.
