What is Gemelli Pasta?

Gemelli refers to the shape of the pasta itself. It is two short strands of pasta that are twisted together. This pasta shape holds the flavor of whatever sauce you pair it with. And it is easier than others to cook to the perfect “al dente.”

Simple Ingredients Gemelli Pasta Recipe

  • Gemelli Pasta | This is the best shape to hold all the pasta sauce flavors. But feel free to get creative with your pasta shape, any short pasta will work, but angel hair pasta or other long pastas will work too!
  • Broth of Choice | Cooking the pasta in broth instead of cooking water infuses the flavor throughout the pasta; this was a game changer for me! Choose your favorite chicken broth or vegetable broth. 
  • Heavy Cream | I use heavy cream for this recipe, but you can substitute it with half-and-half. I do not recommend whole milk as it tends to break up.
  • Parmesan Cheese | This recipe uses Parmesan Cheese, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or Grana Padano Parmesan. Grana is slightly sweeter.
  • Herbs | Italian Parsley and fresh garlic make this dish sing!
  • Veggies | Baby spinach, broccoli, and artichoke hearts are perfect for lemon pasta!
  • Lemon | Fresh lemon zest and lemon juice for this creamy garlic pasta.
  • La Tourangelle White Truffle Oil | I joined La Tourangelle to create this recipe using their truffle oil for the perfect ending to this fantastic garlic pasta dish. A little drizzle is all you need!

Variations for Gemellie Pasta with Lemon and Garlic

  • White Wine | Add a splash of white wine or Prosecco before adding the cream to this garlic lemon pasta recipe, similar to my Bow Tie Pasta Recipe.
  • Vegetables | Fresh green veggies add nicely to this easy lemon pasta recipe. Try peas or zucchini. Mushrooms would be yummy, too.
  • Protein | Make it a hearty weeknight dinner by adding some grilled or baked salmon, succulent shrimp, grilled, blackened, or crispy chicken slices, or perhaps a juicy steak hot off the grill.
  • Capers | Capers add that salty flavor and elevate any simple pasta dish.
  • Tomatoes | Flavor and color!
  • Nuts or Seeds | Try toasted pine nuts, pepitas, sliced almonds, or walnuts to garnish your finished plate.
  • Fresh Herbs | garnish with any of a variety of herbs like fresh parsley, dill, oregano, fresh basil and more.
  • Sweet Peppers | I found these mini sweet pepper drops in our deli olive bar at the grocery store; they add the perfect sweet heat!

What is La Tourangelle Truffle Oil?

The company La Tourangelle makes a deliciously aromatic artisan truffle oil that is so good drizzled over the pasta just before serving! It has all the complex notes of woods, earth, and fruit authentic to the Italian White Alba Truffle. Made with sunflower oil, it pours beautifully.

How to make this Gemelli Pasta Recipe

Step 1 | Boiling the Pasta

In a Dutch oven or a deep pot, dump the pasta right in. Then add the broth and minced garlic to the pot and boil it on high heat. Once it has reached a rolling boil, reduce the heat, cover the pasta, and cook it according to the pasta package directions. You want it to be al dente pasta. Depending on your broth, I recommend adding the salt at the end of this recipe.

The liquid will reduce as the pasta boils and absorbs the salty garlic broth. Ladle some out to reserve for the creamy noodle sauce if there is too much leftover.

Step 2 | Prep the Ingredients

While the pasta is cooking away, juice the lemon, rinse and chop the broccoli, strain the artichokes, chop the parsley, and grate the cheese, we love our microplane.

Step 3 | Add in More Flavor

Zesting the lemon right into the pot with the Gemelli pasta heightens and brightens the flavor, and the fresh lemon juice adds that lemony goodness.

Fresh Tips

  • Go Big! This easy lemon garlic pasta recipe may easily be doubled for more!

Step 4 | Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce and Veggies

Time for the broccoli. (See my fresh tips on cooking broccoli just right.) Pour in the heavy cream and put the broccoli in the pasta, and cover, allowing the broccoli to steam a bit.

Step 5 | Garnish and Serve

To finish: add the grated and shaved parmesan cheese and mix it until melted and creamy. I also have a bit more on hand to garnish the top. Now is a great time to take a taste, add salt and pepper to taste!

Then serve it up with a sprinkling of chopped parsley, a lovely lemon wedge, a healthy drizzling of the truffle oil and a dusting of parmesan cheese or some shaved parmesan.

Tips for Cooking Broccoli with Pasta

Broccoli takes longer to cook than the rest of the creamy pasta dish. So, here are a few tips on making your broccoli come out just the way you like it. 

  • Crisp | Chop your broccoli into thin and smaller stalks without actually chopping it finely. Stir into pasta mixture before adding cream, cover, and allow to steam for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Crisp Tender | With broccoli chopped smaller as above, add to noodles during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Be sure to cover. 
  • Fork Tender | Again, chop broccoli smaller, add to noodles the entire time they cook, and keep the lid covered for the whole time. 
  • Steaming | If preferred, steam the broccoli separately to your desired doneness, then just stir it into the pasta.

What to Serve with Lemon Garlic Pasta Recipe

Try this Sous Vide Chicken Breast for a complete meal. Or try this recipe for Instant Pot Whole Chicken. Remember; 30-minute meal!

You can even use this as a side dish for my Coconut Lime Chicken for a summer meal. Or simply grab a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store and shred the meat for an easy protein add-in.

Love shrimp? Add the last few minutes of cooking the pasta until done and don’t forget the Garlic toast!

Substitutions for Garlic Lemon Pasta

  • Make it Gluten-Free | For a gluten-free version of this recipe, try using a Gluten-free penne. Barilla makes a good one. I have not found a Gemelli in a GF pasta. As long as your broth is GF and you grate your own cheese, you should be good!
  • Vegan Lemon Garlic Pasta | For a vegan lemon pasta version, eliminate the cream and cheese. Nutritional yeast works well as a cheese substitute, and there are plenty of vegan cheeses in the grocery store today. For the cream, you can use almond milk, oat milk, or cashew cream for a gorgeous vegan lemon garlic pasta.
  • Spice it Up | You can add red pepper or chili flakes when making the cream sauce. Start with ¼ teaspoon and go from there. And remember, the peppers open and heat more as they cook.
  • Add Pesto | A couple of tablespoons of pesto will brighten the flavors even more! Try my Easy Nut Free Basil Pesto Sauce Recipe.

Recommended Equipment

A sturdy heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven will work best, though watch the size 4-quart works great, if the pot is too big, it will be harder for your gemelli pasta to cook.

Don’t forget the microplane for your zesting your lemon and cheese grating, my favorite!

Storage Tips

To store this creamy lemon vegetable pasta, place the leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. 

Freezing: I do not usually recommend putting creamy pasta dinners in the freezer as the cream doesn’t freeze well. However if you cannot avoid, it’s better to freeze than to toss, when re-heating, you might want to add a splash of cream and a little extra parmesan stirring into the hot pasta.

Reheating Tips

Then just warm it in the microwave or in a medium saucepan over medium heat to enjoy it again. To help the sauce coat the pasta again, add a splash of broth, the reserved starchy water, or cream and stir.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a substitute for Gemelli pasta?

If you are fresh out of the Gemelli shape, you can use penne or fusilli.

Can I use pre-grated parmesan cheese in this pasta recipe?

Freshly grated parmesan melts better than pre-grated cheeses, which have anti-caking agents that may hinder the melting process. So, I prefer freshly grated cheese. That said, I like to at least buy a high quality grated parmesan cheese when I am in a pinch.

Are lemon and garlic a good combination?

They sure are. Lemon and garlic are often used together in salad dressings and more. And the garlic turns so buttery delicious when it cooks!
I like to add a squeezing of lemon to the finish of my Air Fryer Asparagus and many of the seafood and chicken dishes I serve.

Top Tip

If you know you will have leftovers, save the excess starchy pasta water in an airtight container in the fridge. Then you can pull it out and use the reserved pasta water to reconstitute the creamy sauce.
