Instructions
In a stock pot cook the gluten free fusilli pasta per the package instructions. When the pasta is done, strain it and then return the pasta to the pot you cooked it in.
While the pasta is cooking, in a saute pan over medium heat melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the peas, onion, minced garlic and lemon zest. Saute until onions are translucent and the peas are cooked through.
Pour the cream into the pea mixture and bring to a boil. Lower the temperature and simmer for 5-7 minutes to reduce the sauce.
Add the lemon juice, cheese, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
