Cook the ditalini in salted boiling water in a large saucepan over high heat until just al dente following the recommended cook time on the package. (Start cooking the pasta about 5 minutes before sauteing the asparagus.)
In a large skillet or sauté pan over medium high heat, warm the olive oil. Sauté the asparagus until bright green and crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Add in the garlic, salt and pepper and lemon juice, allowing 30 seconds to 1 minute for everything to become fragrant.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked ditalini from the pot to the skillet and stir in the parmesan, pine nuts, lemon zest and parsley.
Divide onto serving plates or into bowls, topping with more parmesan and parsley, as desired.
