1 cupParmesan, freshly grated and loosely packed
2tbspLemon juice, fresh squeezed

Instructions
Bring a large pot of satled water to a boil.
In a large skillet, combine the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Put on medium heat.
Add the pasta to the pot and stir for a minute so that it doesn't stick or clump.
Once the garlic starts to turn golden brown just around the edges, add in the parsley.
Take a 1/4 cup of water out of the pasta pot and set it aside. Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet.
Take the skillet off the heat and add in parmesan, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Toss the pasta to coat it in the sauce. Add in the reserved pasta water, and toss the pasta to coat it. Finish the pasta with a little more freshly grated parmesan and a few turns of fresh cracked pepper.
