Baked Lemon Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the oil, Parmesan, and lemon juice in a large bowl to blend.
• Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Toss the pasta with the lemon sauce, and the reserved cooking liquid, adding 1/4 cup at a time as needed to moisten. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with lemon zest and chopped basil.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of aggressively salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the farfalle and cook for 1 to 2 minutes less than the package instructions, until al dente. Drain and reserve 3/4 cup (180 milliliters) of the pasta water.
• While the pasta cooks, make the sauce: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the lemon zest and juice. Add 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) of the pasta water and bring to a low simmer. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Stir in the cream and the remaining 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) pasta water if it is dry. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese. Serve with freshly ground black pepper and more Parmesan.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375° F.
• 2. Prepare spaghetti according to package directions; drain.
• 3. While pasta is cooking, melt butter with olive oil in a skillet placed over LOW heat. Once butter is melted, add minced garlic. Squeeze a little lemon juice into the pan. Turn off heat. Add sour cream to skillet, and stir the mixture together. Add lemon zest, salt and pepper. Taste, then add more salt and pepper if necessary.
• 4. Place drained spaghetti in an oven-proof baking dish. Pour mixture over drained spaghetti and stir together.
• 5. Cover baking dish with foil, and bake for 15 minutes. Then remove foil and bake for an additional 7 to 10 minutes. (Don't bake too long or the pasta will dry out.) Squeeze a little more lemon juice over the top, for an extra citrusy kick.
• 6. Sprinkling parmesan cheese and chopped parsley on the top of each serving. Garnish servings with a slice of lemon, and serve.

Steps:

• For the pasta: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13- by 9- by 2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook until brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pancetta and drain on paper towels.
• For the sauce: In a 2-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Add the lemon zest. Simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, combine the cheese sauce, cooked pancetta, pasta, basil and thyme. Toss until the ingredients are coated. Stir in the lemon juice. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the mozzarella.
• For the topping: In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
• Sprinkle the topping over the pasta mixture. Drizzle the top with olive oil and bake until the top is golden brown, 25 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Lightly salt and pepper salmon fillet on both sides, and place in a 2-quart baking dish. Squeeze 1 lemon half over the salmon, then sprinkle with minced garlic and 1/2 of the butter pieces.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• When salmon is cooked, break apart into large chunks (it will break apart a little further when you toss it with the pasta.)
• Add cooked pasta to the baking dish with the salmon. Drizzle pasta and salmon with olive oil, and add remaining butter pieces. Zest the remaining lemon half and add to the pasta, then squeeze juice from the zested lemon into the pasta as well. Add parsley, salt, and pepper.
• Toss everything gently until pasta is well coated in the pan juices and everything you have added in, and salmon is evenly distributed amongst the pasta. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add a touch more butter or oil if needed, if your pasta is too dry.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large pot, cook spaghetti until done.
• Over low heat, melt butter with olive oil. add minced garlic and pour lemon juice into pan. Turn off heat.
• Add the sour cream and blend the mixture together. Add the zest and salad, pepper along with parsley.
• Pour mixture over drained spaghetti and blend well.
• Pour spaghetti mixture into a oven proof dish with a cover of foil.
• Bake for about 15 minutes and then remove foil, bake for 7-10 more minutes.
• Remove from oven. Drizzle some more lemon juice all over the top.
• Top generously with Parmesan cheese.
• VOILA!

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the bow tie pasta; return to a boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Season chicken with lemon pepper.
• Melt the margarine with the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the chicken pieces until no longer pink in the center. Remove the chicken pieces, and place them in the bottom of a casserole dish.
• To the same skillet, add the garlic, white wine, sour cream, basil, lemon zest, and 1/2 of the lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove the skillet from the heat; stir in the pasta. Spoon the pasta and sauce mixture over the chicken. Cover with foil.
