Pasta With Pancetta and Tomato Sauce - Giada De Laurentiis image

I saw Food Network's Giada make this simple and quick to put together dish and had to make it. I loved it! Sometimes, I substitute lean ham or canadian bacon for the panchetta.

Categories     Pork

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces pancetta, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
sea salt
2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 pinch dried crushed red pepper flakes
1 (28 ounce) can tomato puree or 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 lb linguine
1/2 cup grated pecorino romano cheese

Steps:

  • Add the pancetta to a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add olive oil and saute until golden, say 8 minutes. (Suggestion: If using lean ham, add 1/2 tsp black pepper and 1/2 tsp sweet paprika).
  • Add the onion and saute till tender for 5 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until fragrant for about 30 seconds.
  • Stir in the tomato puree.
  • Simmer uncovered over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors blend, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, boil the pasta according to directions.
  • Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
  • Toss the linguine with the sauce in the skillet, adding some of the reserved cooking liquid until the pasta is moist but being careful not to dilute the sauce.
  • Toss with the cheese.

This recipe was a disaster! The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was too acidic. I would not recommend this recipe.

This pasta dish was a bit bland. I think I'll add more garlic and herbs next time. Otherwise, it was a good dish and the pasta was cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less pancetta next time. Otherwise, it was a good dish and the pasta was cooked perfectly.

I'm not a huge fan of pancetta, but I really enjoyed this dish. The tomato sauce was flavorful and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, but I might use bacon instead of pancetta.
