LEMON-BASIL PASTA
Protein-packed cannellini beans, lemon zest, and heady fresh basil fill this made-in-minutes pasta dish with fresh summer flavors. To store extra basil, snip a quarter-inch from its stems, stand it in a glass filled with about an inch of water, cover loosely with a plastic bag, and refrigerate.

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.

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.
