Whole wheat linguine or spaghetti

Large lemons,  plus lemon wedges for garnish

Medium leek ,  thinly sliced and rinsed well

Extra virgin olive oil

Chopped flat leaf parsley,  divided

Cloves Garlic,  Crushed

Salt

Freshly ground pepper

Finely grated parmesan cheese,  divided

Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water until just tender or according to package directions. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid and drain the pasta in a colander.

step 1

Meanwhile, finely grate 1 tablespoon zest (see tip) and squeeze 1/4 cup juice from the 2 lemons; set the juice aside. Pat leek slices dry. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the leek, the lemon zest, 1/4 cup parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the leek is lightly browned and softened, about 6 minutes.

step 2

Add the pasta, 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, the reserved lemon juice and the remaining 1/4 cup parsley to the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is mostly absorbed, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the remaining 1/2 cup liquid, if desired. Remove from the heat. Discard the garlic. Toss the pasta with 1/2 cup parmesan and 2 tablespoons chives. Transfer to a serving bowl or bowls; sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan and 2 tablespoons chives and serve with lemon wedges, if desired.
