Lemon Artichoke Pasta

This is one of my favorite pasta dishes with tender artichokes in a buttery lemon sauce - it's ready as soon as the pasta is boiled!

Ingredients

• 1 pound linguine
• 1 cup marinated artichokes, quartered
• 2 tablespoons capers
• 1/2 cup parsley chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 4 tablespoons butter, divided
• 2 tablespoons Meyer Lemon Olive Oil
• 2 lemons, juiced
• 1/2 cup white wine
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Bring a large salted pot of water to a boil and cook the linguine to al dente. 
2. While the pasta cooks, add 2 tablespoons butter and olive oil to a large saute pan. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, wine, salt and peppers. Let reduce slightly.  Add the artichokes, capers and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
3. Once the pasta is cooked add a splash of pasta water to the sauce. Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce. Add the parsley and parmesan and toss to combine.
