Ingredients:

Serving

8 oz uncooked gemelli ( short twisted tube pasta)
1 cup (1 1/2-inch) cut haricots verts (about 4 oz)
1/2 cup chopped shelled pistachios
2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, divided
2 tbsp grated lemon rind, divided
1 tbsp minced shallots
2 tbsp champagne or white wine vinegar
3 garlic cloves, crushed
5 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 oz shaved fresh parmesan cheese (about 1/3 cup)

Cook the pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Add haricots verts during the final 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and rinse pasta mixture under cold water; drain well.
Place the pasta mixture, pistachios, 1 tablespoon thyme, and 1 tablespoon lemon rind in a large bowl; toss gently to combine.
Combine remaining 1 tablespoon thyme, remaining 1 tablespoon lemon rind, shallots, Champagne or white wine vinegar, and garlic in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Gradually add olive oil, stirring constantly with a whisk. Add salt and black pepper; stir with a whisk. Drizzle over pasta mixture, and toss gently to coat. Top each serving with Parmesan cheese.
