Preparation

Step 1

Cook your spaghetti until al dente. Reserve 1 C of cooking liquid and strain noodles. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once warm, add breadcrumbs and stir until all breadcrumbs are coated. Turn heat down to medium low and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 3

Transfer to a bowl along with the lemon zest, 2 Tbsp. parsley, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir and set aside.

Step 4

Wipe out the skillet and add your heavy cream and goat cheese, whisk until thoroughly combined. Simmer until mixture is combined and bubbly. Season with the pink peppercorns, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add in your parsley and lemon juice, stir to combine. Next, add your noodles and half of the pasta water, toss to combine. If you need more water, add a little at a time. Keep tossing until sauce is combined.

Step 5

Portion out pasta, top with crispy breadcrumbs.
