Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, add a generous pinch of salt, and cook spaghetti 1 minute less than the package directions instruct. Before draining the pasta, reserve about a cup of the water for later use.
- Meanwhile, mince the garlic and zest the lemons using a microplane (or without, if you don't have one). Cut the lemons in half and add the juice to a small container so it's ready to go.
- Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about a minute. Add the red pepper flakes and stir for a few more seconds.
- Add lemon juice and white wine, increase the heat to medium-high, and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the pasta water, add the butter, and turn off the heat once it's melted.
- Add the pasta back into the pan, followed by the lemon zest and parmesan cheese, tossing to coat all the spaghetti with the sauce. Add more pasta water as needed, 1 tablespoon at a time. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve topped with additional parmesan cheese, thyme, and red pepper flakes, if desired.
