Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.

Prepare the Sauce
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots, sautéing for about 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Combine Ingredients
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper into the skillet. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the sauce to thicken slightly, about 5 minutes.

Add Cheese and Basil
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, and lemon zest. Mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.

Toss the Pasta
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the pasta evenly. If the sauce is too thick, gradually stir in some reserved pasta water until the desired consistency is reached.
