📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. To cook pasta.
2
Heat olive oil in a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat. Add pancetta and saute until golden brown, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate while leaving fat in pan.
3
Return pan with fat medium heat, add onion and saute ⏱️ 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute ⏱️ 20 seconds longer.
minced garlic (2 cloves)2 tsp
4
Pour in tomatoes, wine, red pepper flakes, cooked pancetta and season with pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer then reduce heat to low and let simmer about 15 to ⏱️ 20 minutes uncovered.
5
Meanwhile boil pasta to al dente according to package directions in very lightly salted water (I only add 1/2 tsp). Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining pasta.
6
Toss drained pasta with the finished sauce and the Romano cheese. Taste for salt (it shouldn't need much because the pancetta is salty and the Romano). Thin with pasta water as needed.
Salt (and freshly ground black pepper)
7
Serve right away garnished with parsley.
minced parsley, (for garnish (optional))2 Tbsp
