Delicious and easy pasta dish made with simple ingredients. Nice to have once in awhile. I use whole package of bacon and about 1 & 1/2 pasta.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb pasta (Bucatinni is nice for this-looks like spaghetti but bigger)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 large onions or 8 garlic cloves, cut into small pieces
3/4 lb bacon
1/2 cup pasta water
fresh coarse ground black pepper
grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut bacon into 1 inch pieces and cook in pan until translucent and alot of grease has come out.
  • Drain grease and leave bacon in pan, add cut onion and olive oil. Cook and stir until onion turns a nice golden brown color.
  • Cook pasta al dente (I like 11 minutes timed), drain, place back in pot and add cooked bacon & onion, or garlic and some pasta water. Add coarse black pepper.
