INSTRUCTIONS
Bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta water and drain pasta. Return cooked pasta to pot, off heat, and toss with 1 tsp olive oil to prevent sticking. (4-serving meal: reserve 2 cups pasta water, use 2 tsp olive oil)
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add shallot and cook until softened and slightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic, just half the jalapenĢo, asparagus, and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until jalapeƱo is softened, 3 to 6 minutes. Stir in cooked pasta, corn, parmesan, butter, just half the basil, lemon zest, as much lemon juice as you'd like, and reserved pasta water and cook until butter is melted and liquid is reduced, 3 to 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (4-serving meal: use 2 tbsp olive oil) (TIP: Add more jalapenĢo if you prefer more spice.)
Divide lemon-basil mafaldine with asparagus and corn between bowls and sprinkle with remaining basil. Mangia!
