Pasta Limone is especially popular in southern Italy and Sicily which are known for their lemon trees. You may already have most of the ingredients in your pantry and refrigerator. All you need is pasta, lemons, parmesan, heavy cream, butter, salt and pepper. Using super fresh ingredients like hand grated parmesan, fresh squeezed lemons, and cracked pepper from a mill grinder is what makes this dish worthy of an Italian restaurant. Buon Appetito!
