Fill a large pot with water and add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Bring to a boil.
2
Cook the gemelli pasta in the boiling water until al dente, following the package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain the pasta.

While the pasta cooks, heat a large pan over medium-low heat. Add the extra virgin olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes.
4
Add the crushed red pepper flakes to the pan and cook for another 30 seconds.
5
Pour a ladle of reserved pasta water into the pan and turn the heat to medium.
6
Add the al dente pasta and baby arugula to the pan. Toss to coat and season with kosher salt. Cook for 1 minute.
7
Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice, lemon zest, and grated Parmigiano Reggiano to the pan. Toss to combine.
8
If the pasta seems too dry, add a little more reserved pasta water and toss once more.
9
Taste the pasta and adjust salt, if needed. Serve in bowls with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
