Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, add the capellini pasta and cook for about 5 minutes, or until al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander and rinse it under cool water to stop the cooking process.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the juice of 2 medium lemons, 5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Whisk until the dressing is fully emulsified.
- Add the cooled capellini pasta to the bowl with the dressing. Incorporate 1 cup of diced tomatoes and 2 tablespoons of capers. Gently toss everything together with a spatula.
- Add 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped curly leaf parsley and the zest of 1 lemon to the pasta mixture. Toss gently to combine.
- Let your Lemon Capellini Salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes
Toss the salad again just before serving to redistribute the dressing and enhance flavor.
