Pappardelle With Tomato Sauce And Stewed Pancettta Recipes

PASTA WITH PANCETTA AND TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the pancetta to a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and saute until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Saute until fragrant, 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. Season the sauce with salt, to taste.
• Meanwhile, boil the linguine in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. 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. Season with salt, to taste.

PAPPARDELLE WITH TOMATO SAUCE AND STEWED PANCETTTA

Steps:

• What to Do: 1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. 2. Melt butter in a large skillet set over medium-low heat. Add pancetta and crumbled chilies. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, stewing the pancetta until it turns gold. 3. Squeeze juice out of the tomatoes, leaving flesh intact. Roughly chop tomatoes. 4. Add tomatoes to the sauté pan and season with salt. Cook at medium-low heat for 6 to 7 minutes, or until tomatoes caramelize and color the oil. Stir often and adjust the heat, if needed, to ensure the tomatoes do not burn. 5. Cook pasta until al dente, about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water. 6. Stir cream into tomato sauce and continue to cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until sauce binds together. Add pasta to pan and, using a wooden spoon, toss it around gently. Stir in half the Parmesan. Add just enough pasta water so sauce is glossy and coats the noodles nicely. 7. Serve with remaining Parmesan sprinkled over top.
