Cook the pasta in salted water according to the instructions on the package and reserve a cup of water before draining.

In a large pan, heat the olive oil, then add the butter and allow it to melt. When the butter is foaming, add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds on medium heat until fragrant.

Next, add the lemon zest and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring often. Pour the lemon juice and continue to cook, stirring, until half evaporated.

Add the flour and stir to combine. Stir continuously (or use a whisk) until you obtain a thick paste.

Start adding the stock. Do it gradually, stirring or whisking continuously until you have a thick sauce. Add the spinach and continue to cook for 1 minute.
