PASTA AND PANCETTA AND PEAS IN A GORGONZOLA SAUCE
Good and creamy, this is an impressive pasta dinner that comes together very easy. I used large rigatoni which allowed for ample cheese sauce coverage. Expect big smiles on everyone's face when they dig in.

Steps:
- 1. Bring a large pot of water, 4 to 5 quarts, to a rapid boil. Add a Tbsp. of sea salt. Toss in the Paccheri or large rigatoni pasta and cook according to instructions. Al Dente is preferred so remove before pasta is fully cooked.
- 2. In a large sauté pan add 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil and 4 oz. of cubed pancetta. Cook at medium temperature until fat has been rendered out of pancetta and is crispy. With a slotted spoon take Pancetta out and set aside.
- 3. In the sauté pan add the cream, gorgonzola, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt and the sauce comes together.
- 4. Once pasta is cooked and still al dente toss directly into large sauté pan add peas and pancetta. Garnish with parsley or additional Parmesan cheese.
