Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small shallot, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons heavy cream
12 ounces spaghetti

1 tablespoon chopped tarragon

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is soft and aromatic, but not quite golden, about 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and take off the heat.

Add the sugar snap peas to the boiling water with the spaghetti for that last 45 seconds. Drain the pasta and snap peas, then add them to the skillet with the sauce. Add the lemon juice, zest, cheese and a splash of the cooking water and cook over high heat until well coated, about 1 minute. Stir in the herbs and serve immediately.
