Cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Reserve a cup pasta water before draining, then set aside.
In a large pan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 4–5 minutes until lightly golden. Stir in the seasonings and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the lemon zest and lemon juice and stir for 30 seconds.
Slowly pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the parmesan and stir until melted and smooth. Toss in the spaghetti and parsley (if using).
While stirring over medium-low heat, gradually add pasta water as needed until the sauce is silky and coats every strand of pasta.
Finish with more parmesan, black pepper, and an optional lemon wedge for the vibes. Enjoy!
