Mix together the oil, garlic, parsley, lemon zest and juice.
Season with salt and pepper.
Add the toasted pine nuts, stir well, and allow to sit for a couple of hours for the flavors to meld.
Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until it is al dente.
Just before draining, remove a small cup of pasta water.
Drain the pasta, and return it to the pot with the lemon sauce over high heat.
Add a little pasta water to prevent it from drying out.
