Steps:
- First, finely chop about half a large onion and mince or press about four large cloves of garlic (organic, of course).
- Second, take about a handful of organic basil (I hate to admit I don't wash this because it is harder to mince) and then finely chop the basil.
- Third, shred about half to three-quarters cup of parmesan reggiano.
- Fourth, start a pot of boiling salted water.
- Open two cans of chicken broth (I like Ralphs because it is less sodium than Stater Bros.).
- Place about one large heaping tablespoon of cornstarch in a short water glass or coffee cup.
- Saute onion only over medium heat in about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add about three or four shakes of ground white pepper (maybe a bit more if you like it spicy). After about two minutes of saute process, add garlic and continue to stir and heat for another one minute. This brings out flavor of garlic. Then add about 3/4 cup of white wine and raise heat to "high" to deglaze the pan. Boil to reduce the liquid until it is nearly gone.
- Add one can of chicken stock, keeping heat at high. Stir the pan to make sure that all accumulated flavor on side of pan is combined with liquid. Boil this down by about half. Then add most of the second can and boil down again by about 1/3.
- While the sauce is finishing, add pasta to boiling water.
- Using the balance of the unused can of chicken stock, slowly pour into the glass of cornstarch stirring to blend the powder into a paste and then add more stock to make it a thick cornstarch liquid. Add this liquid slowly to the sauce, stirring in to incorporate about 15 seconds after pouring. Continue to heat on medium heat until sauce has thickened slightly (won't be much thicker than a heavy liquid) - this won't take much more than 45 seconds. Turn off heat. Add juice from about 1 lemon, more or less if desired. Stir to blend lemon. Set aside.
- Drain pasta. Place in bowls. Add basil to each bowl of dry pasta. Mix. Add a bit of sauce. Mix. Then add a bit of cheese. Mix. Add more sauce and cheese and fresh ground black pepper on top.

Steps:
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter, thinly sliced lemon, and minced fresh garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times, until lemon slices brown and release juices and minced garlic is browned but not burned. Remove from heat and add 2 more tablespoons of butter. Stir until it melts. Remove lemon slices from the skillet.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add pasta and cook al dente according to package instructions. Drain pasta.
- Add hot, drained, and cooked pasta to the cast-iron skillet with butter and garlic. Stir everything well.
- Add 2 more tablespoons of butter and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir on low-medium heat for a couple of minutes to spread out the cheese among the pasta and melt it a bit. Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt.
- Add half of the fresh chopped basil to hot pasta and mix everything well.
- When ready to serve, top with the remaining half of fresh chopped basil, toasted pine nuts, and cracked black pepper.

PASTA WITH LEMON AND BASIL
This recipe comes from Jamie Oliver by way of Blake Royer at Serious Eats. http://bit.ly/hM0LW9 You could add a touch of decadence with a little bit of marscapone cheese, if you liked. Long pasta shapes (spaghetti, linguine, fettucini, etc) are probably best for this sauce. Since the oil is barely cooked and a prime ingredient, use the best quality extra-virgin olive oil you can find.
