A budget-friendly fancy pasta made with long noodle pasta, shallots, garlic, lemon, capers, parsley, and white wine. This quick and easy recipe is sure to impress and is made with ingredients you likely have on hand.
1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta as directed on packaging.
2: While the pasta is cooking, make the sauce by heating a large pan over medium heat. Cook the shallots, add a pinch of salt and the capers. Cook for 5 minutes.
3: Add the garlic, parsley, and white wine. Cook off the alcohol, about 5 minutes.
4: Pull pasta directly from the pot of water, which will naturally bring some pasta water with you to help form a sauce. Continually mix the pasta to help form a silky sauce. Add the lemon, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
5: Serve and enjoy! Optionally top with parm.
